Roll away & join the circus

...with the Tour de Fat
on 21st June!


The makers of Fat Tire beer have added The City of Big Shoulders to the 8th year of their bike circus tour. While partying might be one theme, at its heart it celebrates the bike, informs how to reduce our waste stream, encourages people to roll to work and for errands, and raises money for West Town Bikes.

The event starts of with a fantastic party-parade tour of Logan Square and Humboldt Park. Festival goers often dress in costume and decorate their most fun bikes and there's musical and acrobatic entertainment featuring our local notables, Mucca Pazza.

So make sure to join the circus in Palmer Square, Palmer Blvd. at Kedzie, from 10am-4pm. Bring your bike and your dancing shoes and be prepared for a great time!

Apparently this thing is being run by Mormons as they're not serving beer until 10 AM...
