This Week’s Micro Dose: Arctic Epics, Custom Builds, and the One Upgrade That Changed Everything

This week’s Micro Dose is packed. We’re kicking things off with an incredible story out of Alaska. Ned Rozell and Forest Wagner are riding fat bikes roughly 700 miles from Fairbanks to Nome, chasing frozen rivers and hard-packed snow before spring pulls the plug. It’s not a race, just two friends and a really long line on the map. We’ve also got a surprise long-form profile from Pinkbike (for real! Pinkbike) on Greg Matyas, the man behind Fatback now Corvus Cycles, tracing how one Anchorage shop rat helped shape the fat bike scene as we know it. And if you haven’t seen the “Project XL Double Bacon Cheesebrother” from Sentient Works yet… just wait. It’s a custom fat cargo bike built for serious all-weather hauling, and it’s as wild as the name suggests.

On the more sobering side, former BBC Breakfast host Louise Minchin had to cut her 300-mile Arctic Circle fat bike ride short after frostbite set in. A real reminder that the cold doesn’t care about your resume. We’re also digging into a great conversation from the Fat-bike Lab this week: what’s the ONE upgrade that changed your fat bike the most? Dropper posts and cockpit swaps are leading the charge, but there are some surprising answers in there too. Hit play on the episode, and if you haven’t joined the Lab yet, it’s free over at fat-bike.com/community. Enjoy the ride.

Hit play and get your five-minute fat bike fix for the week.

Winter is hanging on, but the cracks are showing. This week’s Micro Dose covers the reopening of the Boneyard Trails near Farmington, New Mexico – 15 miles of legalized rocky singletrack that’s been off-limits for years. We also dig into fat bike trail closures as warm temps turn hero snow into soup, a community update from the Fat-bike Lab (now 70+ riders strong), late-season gear picks from Club Ride and Wolf Tooth Components, and a full weekend race rundown featuring the Trio 2026, Fatty Patty 50K, and the White Mountains 100.

And the wild card this week? A Norwegian billionaire who rolled into Nome ahead of the actual Iditarod winner. Craig Medred’s write-up on how that happened is absolutely worth your time.

The post Weekly Dose of Fat: Micro Dose #6 – This Week’s Fat-Bike News in Minutes appeared first on .

This week, the conversation starts on the beach. A Shorewood court ruling in Wisconsin could affect how riders (and walkers) move along certain Lake Michigan shorelines—one of those stories that’s easy to miss, but worth knowing if you ride sand, snow, or frozen edge-of-water lines.

From there, it’s pure winter stoke: the Catamount Fat Bike Rally is back in Vermont with groomed trails and demo bikes—perfect “try it before you buy it” energy. Swift dropped a new Luminary bag print inspired by the Northern Lights, and there’s a fresh set of winter riding ideas and conditions from across the map, including a new mixed-surface loop in eastern Iowa that sounds like a legit weekend adventure.

For this episode of the Danger Gnome Podcast Tio Gomez hit the road up to the Green Bay Area to meet up with our old friend George Kapitz and his Broken Spoke Bike Studio crew for a fat bike skills workshop that they’ve given an apt name. They call it their Crash Course and they cover fat biking 101 for folks that want to dip their toe into the Snow Crown Race Series. A good portion of the evening was spent out on the trails learning bike handling skills and after a classroom session about bike maintenance, we got to sit down and reminisce a little bit with George about the old days and also talk about the upcoming Race Season.

Winter vs. Summer – The Bike on the left is set up for winter and the bike on the right is set for Summer

We managed to geek out for almost an hour about how we all like to hotrod our fat bikes for dirt.

We asked what modifications you make to your fat bike for summer and here are some of your answers.

Adam, Steve, and I sat down at a picnic table on the front porch at the Levis Chalet for an outdoor recording session. Adam interviewed Steve about the trails and I ask a question or two. That way we all got to ride the incredible singletrack at Levis and Trow Mounds.

Tio Gomez talks with four-time Fat Bike Birkie Champion, Corey Stelljes about his incredible ‘four-peat’ winning streak. We get into the weeds a bit with subjects that include lumberjacking, bow staff skills, and something really interesting called ‘MAD/BAT’. At some point in the show, I think we trade gnome recipes as well. It’s a deep dive into the now-famous Fat Bike Birkie with a true racing legend!

The Levis Trow Mounds Fat Tire Festival is coming right down the pike on September 10-12th. The LMFTF is a celebration of mountain bikes, off-road riding, and of course shenanigans.  Mountain bike festivals like Gnomefest got me back into enjoying the culture of mountain biking, but it can be scary to go to a new trail system and expect to be able to rock on every trail.  So, for this Pneu Podcast, I chatted with Jay Thomas, owner of Roots Mountain Biking.  They help coach and train people to become better mountain bikers through clinics and skill drills.  Jay has personally helped my wife become more confident on her mountain bike, and his team of coaches is always improving.  Take a listen and if you want to step up your MTB game, give Jay a holler!IG: @rootsmountainbiking FB: Roots Mountain Website: www.rootsmountainbiking.com Youtube: RootsMTB

The post Full Spectrum Cycling #103 – Trusky in the Studio and Calls From DFL and Big Sexy appeared first on .

Gomez is joined by Ronsta and Danimal to review the 2021 Kona Woo. This is the first time that Fat-Bike has reviewed a bike in a podcast.

 Ronsta & Danimal at Wheel & Sprocket Delafield 

It’s like reality TV for your ears when we all get going. After we recorded this segment, I recently took the Woo out for some crustifarian miles and enjoyed the hell out of it!

We plan on giving the Woo a shot at some dirt this spring with a suspension fork and a dropper post so stay tuned for more about what we think of this iridescent bici-gordo guapo! Take a listen and let us know what you think in the comments below.

Show Beer – Wizard Staff IPA

It may have taken some powers of mystical proportions, but we conjured up an easy-drinking, low-alcohol IPA that doesn’t compromise flavor. Extremely drinkable, but with a bold hop profile, this IPA is juicy and tropical, yet smooth and light. Crushable. Flavorful. Stackable. It must be magic.

• ABV – 5%

• TASTE – Mango, citrus and tropical fruit sweetness balanced by a mild, subtle bitterness

¡Happy New Year – Feliz Año Nuevo! The star of this episode is a Beautiful set of fat-bike wheels that comes out of the land of ten-thousand lakes. Hed Cycling , Berd Spokes and Onyx Racing Products are playing in concert and have created a Limited Edition – Made in MN Wheelset. Our guests include Anne Hed, from Hed Cycling. Charlie Spanjers, Cofounder of Berd Spokes along with our Fatbassador Travis Hubbard. Later in the show, Chris Daisy talks about his newfound freedom of choice in an After Hours segment that bears a listen. We answer a reader question about summer fat-bike tires that we like and Chris takes a shot across the bow of the bike industry. (I never even knew he was in the Navy).

The Pneu Podcast is back!  This episode comes out swinging with a guy who, we think, is misunderstood by a lot of people.  He challenges people to push past their self-imposed limitations and become better people, not just better cyclists.  Find out why #quitter isn’t a “jerk thing”, learn about some of the hardest events in the country, and make sure you blame him:  It’s the promoter of Marji Gesick, Crusher, and Polar Roll, and the director of the 906 Adventure Team: Todd Poquette!

Show Beer – Good City Risk IPA Courtesy of Sam D

• From the Brewery – After 4 pilot batches of this recipe we knew it was time to stop talking about opening a brewery and actually start taking a risk. Brewed with only pale ale malt for a very dry and cleanly malty undertone. Simcoe and Centennial hops lend a very balanced profile tending toward pine and citrus.

• ABV – 6.5%

• Availability – Year-Round

Brian’s refurbished Masi turned out great!

Folks, with low and mid-priced bikes all but unobtainable right now, consider having Everyday Cycles, or your local bike shop, help repurpose an older steed. With some imagination, and a good understanding of your needs, you can have a one-of-a-kind creation that makes your rides special. Think about what you get these days new for $500 dollars and then consider how much better a custom-specced bike should be!

Then again, maybe an electric conversion is more up your alley. Done right, an electric assist system can be light and stealth!

Show Beer

• Potosi Snake Hollow IPA 

  • 6.5 ABV, 65 IBU

  • Once teeming with rattlesnakes, the Potosi valley was known as Snake Hollow. The name lives on in our Midwest IPA. Medium bodied and generously dry-hopped, this beer boasts a bold citrus hop character, notes of grapefruit and a clean bitter finish.

• Want to read the BLM’s LONG proposal for eMTB access on BLM land?

• Want to comment to the BLMon the proposal? – Do it by June 9th – https://www.regulations.gov/comment?D=BLM-2020-0001-0001 

• IMBA’s Sample Comment (assuming you agree with it!)

Sample Comment:

Thank you for the opportunity for the public to engage in the Bureau of Land Management’s Increasing Recreational Opportunities through the Use of Electric Bikes.

The mountain bike community is responsible for a large part of the natural surface trail infrastructure that exists today on our federal, state and local public lands. Hundreds of organized mountain bike clubs around the country manage thousands of volunteers who work closely with land managers on trail development, trail maintenance, and trail education for all users.

Mountain bikers appreciate the leap in technology presented by eMTBs is a unique management challenge. This proposed rule rightfully plans separate management for bicycles and electric bicycles. It is critical land managers and local mountain bikers work together to determine where eMTBs are and are not appropriate on current and future mountain bike trails. The proposed rule includes an admirable planning process to achieve this, which could be made stronger by clarifying the timeline for NEPA analysis.

The final rule should be improved by following the International Mountain Bicycling Association’s management recommendations: managing the three classes of e-bikes separately from one another, and prohibiting class 2 and class 3 eMTBs on natural surface, non-motorized trails. This is to maintain the spirit of traditional mountain bicycling by ensuring pedal-assisted use, and maintaining reasonable speeds for the safety of all users.

Thank you for the willingness to engage with the mountain bike community.

Sincerely,

[name, location, contact information]

Show Beer

• Dogfish Head – Milon, DE – American Beauty Hazy Ripple IPA – An unfiltered IPA bursting with juicy citrus notes.

• Quite the story!

  • It’s been a long strange trip, and we’re not about to stop now. After six years and four releases of American Beauty, we’re back with an encore … only this time you haven’t heard the melody.

Together with the Grateful Dead, we’re proud to introduce our latest collaborative iteration – American Beauty Hazy Ripple IPA.

Inspired by the Grateful Dead’s beloved “American Beauty” album, American Beauty Hazy Ripple IPA is an unfiltered India Pale Ale brewed with spelt – an ancient heirloom grain that contributes a natural haze – that’s then dosed with a special yeast variety to accentuate hop aromatics.

The result is a psychedelic 7.0% ABV ale that’s bursting with notes of tropical fruit and juicy citrus, while the style callout lovingly references the fan-favorite track “Ripple.”

• 7% ABV
