Despite having some experience under their belts, until that day, neither had ever competed in a fat bike race.“It’ll be fun,” he said. “I’m not going to break any course records. We’re just here to have fun today.” “It’s not about winning, really,” she said. “It’s just hanging out as a community and as a family and just riding bikes.”
The event, said Trent Williams, the Summerside's parks and green spaces manager, began as a way to take advantage of both the available trails in Rotary Friendship Park and the increasing popularity of fat biking. Albert Flavell – a fat biker himself – has helped organize the event since its inception, including setting up and grooming the course.A fat bike is like a standard bike, although one with wide tires to help cyclists float over terrain like snow, sand or mud – allowing for use year-round.
