Winter '23-'24 MN Fatbike Events

Winter fatbiking continues to draw in new riders which has brought us a large increase of events over the past several years.  This season should be a great one.  Expect to see the return of  yearly favorites and numerous new fat tire events.  Start planning your calendar now and check back often for updates.

This season's calendar will include all types of  winter fatbike events from festivals and races to demos and group rides.  Below is a list in chronological order of events in Minnesota and nearby across the border.  Race and event organizers, if you would like your event listed please send me an e-mail (visit my contact page).  I will continue to add events to this post as they become available.

January-2024 Minnesota Bike Tours, Rides, Races & Events Schedule

The 2024 bike season is filling up fast with all sorts of events, rides, tours, races and festivals.  I have compiled a chronological list of events by month with links to more information and some with online registration.  Earlier is better when planning which events you are going to participate in as some have a cap on the number of participants or registration deadlines. Use this event listing to save the date for the ones you want to participate in.

This post is a work in progress, so bookmark it and check back often for new event listings.  If you are an event organizer and would like to have your event listed in this post, send me an email (or visit my contact page) with the information and available links.

December-2023 Minnesota Bike Tours, Rides, Races & Events Schedule

The 2023 bike season is filling up fast with all sorts of events, rides, tours, races and festivals.  I have compiled a chronological list of events by month with links to more information and some with online registration.  Earlier is better when planning which events you are going to participate in as some have a cap on the number of participants or registration deadlines. Use this December event listing to save the date for the ones you want to participate in.

This post is a work in progress, so bookmark it and check back often for new event listings.  If you are an event organizer and would like to have your event listed in this post, send me an email (or visit my contact page) with the information and available links.
