Had my first experience riding a fat bike in the dirt, this was a night and day difference from Eleven Mile Reservoir where there was 3-4 inches of snow and below freezing. Today was near 70 and very dusty. I actually got a chance to see how wide tires handle single track in spring and I was very impressed with the results. Cornering traction seemed limitless, deep sand was no problem and even without suspension I never found myself wishing for a squishy fork up front. Traction was so good that when me and Nate switched bikes I blew out the first few corners because I was used to 4 inch wide tires. Once again I really want one.
