I picked up a fat bike a few weeks ago and I really feel that everyone should own a fat bike.

It's an absolute blast to ride. It's like a mix of bike riding and those moon bounce balls for toddlers.

I've ridden it on a mix of trails and pavement, including single track. It's slow, but because of the weight it's still a great work out. The reaction from those tires is endless and it has flotation to match. I took a family ride with my kids where we hit some sandy sections. I honestly felt sorry for my kids as they got the sand and started swerving about to maintain momentum as their tires sunk into sand.

I love road riding, I love my XC bike. I can really get those bikes up to speed to satisfy that desire. The fat bike, can it replace a mountain bike? It can replace all your bikes.
