Winter '26-'27 MN Fatbike Events

This season’s forecast is calling for classic, unpredictable Upper Midwest winter weather! While long-range outlooks lean toward milder-than-average seasonal temperatures overall, weather reports are also pointing toward sudden cold snaps, fast-moving clippers, and periodic bursts of heavy snow—which should give us plenty of great grooming windows and packed-powder trail days throughout the state.

It's time to get your fatbike prepped and ready! The upcoming winter calendar is packed with an incredible mix of events, whether you're a seasoned racer looking to test your limits or a recreational rider searching for a fun group cruise.

Now is the time to start mapping out your winter riding goals. Check out the event list below, and be sure to bookmark this page—I'll be updating this post regularly as more dates, group rides, and races are officially announced. Gear up, layer right, and let's make it a fantastic winter on two wheels!


Here’s your master list of fatbiking events in Minnesota and just over the border, organized by date. Whether you're chasing a podium, looking to test out new gear, or just want to roll with a fun group of riders, there's plenty happening this season. 

Are you host to a winter ride, race, or demo? Drop me a line via the contact page to get your date listed on the schedule. See you on the trail!
