The inaugural Tahoe Fat Tire Festival will be Sept. 20-23 for a weekend of all things mountain bike at Palisades Tahoe. It will feature cross country, short track and gravity racing, rides, trail work, demos and vendor expo, and nightly antics with a beer garden, movie screenings and local bands. Interesting bikes to ride at the 2009 Fat Tire Festival in San Francisco. Photo/Susan Wood TAMBA and the Truckee Trails Foundation are teaming up on this event. The goal is it will be a primary fundraiser for both organizations.
