World's Largest Fat Bike Race
On Saturday, March 11th, the American Birkiebeiner Ski Foundation will host the World's Largest Fat Bike Race. This year is the 5th annual race and has grown steadily through the years. In 2013, fewer than 200 racers participated and this year, the field has expanded to 1,200 racers.
The race takes place on the historic Birkie trail through the forests of Bayfield and Sawyer counties. There are two circuits, a 47 kilometer race (The Big Fat) and a 23 kilometer race (The Chico).
Festivities will be held all weekend starting on March 10th. Also, on-snow demos will be held so you can test out a fat bike and see what fat bike riding is all about. You might find yet another winter hobby to enjoy in the Hayward area!
