    Blake said it best at the end it doesn’t matter what bike wins it’s about getting out there and enjoying the ride. One thing though I love the Superman scientist. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there.

    Super entertaining Blake! I too have a fatty in my quiver. I definitely recommend everyone to get one if they love riding bikes. They are quirky just as Blake states, but they are a load of fun and always bring a smile to my face; on pretty much any condition! About 15% slower everywhere but surprisingly fast downhill! You will surprise your friends with the rumble of the huge tires on the ground behind them! Silly fun actually! Plus you can have snow bike epics too. Very different. Don’t forget to pack the flask! Thanks Blake!
