    Lost Fat Bike Wheel and Tire!


    October 09, 2013, 09:01 AM

    Lots of lost items last night, if it was a contest I may be the winner...

    When I got home to Mt Horeb last night after riding Quarry Ridge I was missing a wheel off my fat bike - not good... I drove Whalen and 18/151 last night and again this morning, kind of like looking for a needle in a haystack. It is a unique thing to find in the ditch so, if you catch wind of it please let me know.

    Is this the best place for this post?

    Thanks, Jay

    not easy, skewer must have been loose... back tire. Did about 7 miles last night, finished riding in the dark and hung it on the rack. Just another reason to upgrade bike racks

    OMFG! I am really hoping it is. This almost has to be it, right? Should be a one word description: FAT :)

    Yes, that's a good find. If it were me, I'd buy a 6-pack for the guy that pm'd me that CL add earlier today ;)

    Wheel is found. He saw it as he biked by it, said it was about 50ft off Whalen road. Lucky find gave him $60 bucks for his hassle and good Karma.
