With record high temperatures predicted today, cyclists have a mix bag of reactions. Road and trail riders are breaking out their bikes from winter storage eager to get out. On the other end, for winter bicycle enthusiasts, fat bikers are bumming it a bit. The last of the Frozen Frolic Fat Bike Series was canceled for today. This annual event finale normally takes place out at Three Rivers, Murphey-Hanrehan Park Reserve, in Savage, MN. But don’t despair fat bikers there are a few more opportunities in the upper Midwest to race your fat tired steed this winter:
