@TheVCAdventures - some tips for next BIG adventure (have fun!)
Fat biking is a blast, but a lot of things have to go right - snow, tire pressure, clothing, etc - it can be a lot, but like anything, the more you do it - the better it gets. I LOVE FATBIKING IN WISCONSIN (and anywhere I would assume). Here is a small collection of tips for y'all that are getting started on a Fat Bike. It doesn't matter much what kind of fat bike you have - these tips are for everyone!

Great stuff man! It was good to meet ya the other day at Hilly Haven. +1 on the air pressure gauge! That day I thought I dropped down to 4psi, but was actually running 6.5 - 7.. Keep doin what ya do, love the content!!
Right on brother. See you out there again SOON!
Great video! New to fatbiking this year in Utah. For me descending is the most different than regular mountain biking.
Totally different. I was walking Brent through how to slide the rear end around. One leg out, move your crotch up to the stem and feather brakes while whipping the rear end around. I told Brent exactly what you said. This is a weird skill only used in fat biking. Wildly effective for swooping downhills!
@@BrianDavisraces I am really diggin' fat biking. Another thing I learned is one wants to start off cold for the first 10-15 minutes. If not starting out cold you will overheat, sweating and then get REALLY cold.
Keep up the great work!
Shout out from Madison if you are ever in the area we have some nice trails, Cam rock, Quarry ridge, Blue mounds state park to name a few
In. Let’s ride!
great vid m8 we just need snow in the UK now lol
I’m rooting for ya! It sucks when it’s cold/nasty but no snow. The worst!
You get around centimeter of (soft) snow in small roadway and you use powered tool to remove the snow? Just get a snow shovel or snow pusher.
I’m sorry I’ve disappointed you.
I am thinking of trying one of the Snow Crown races. Some questions: So how many layers on did you have? And what type of materials were they? Where you clipped into your pedals?
Great question. For this training ride I had:
Tights
Baselayer
Bibs
Thermal LS jersey
Outer thermal cycling coat (Diablo one)
Outer riding pants (blue ones)
Gore Gloves
Buff on neck
Thin hat
Wolvhammer shoes
And of course:
Hollowsocks.com
But…if I were racing 1 less layer on top + bottom. It was about 24f this day
Yes - always clipped in is my preference but it’s been fairly proven it doesn’t make much difference.
Tyler might be coming to fat bike worlds! You coming??
Working that out right now!
Get yourself some 45 Neeerth gloves, problem solved!
Never had luck with them. I should get some new ones I bet they’re much better now
You’ve inspired me to blow the dust off of the Fat Boy
Music to my ears. Have fun JL!
More Brent commentary please.
I agree. The world needs more Brent
Your being a good influence on willingness to being financially irresponsible. 🚴🏼🚴🏼🚴🏼
Yes!!! Do it! Do it! Do it!
Lololol
@@BrianDavisraces I am seriously considering allowing myself to be manipulated by Trek's marketing dept.
Oh the that conscience of mine. 🥺
