The Stowe Mountain Bike Club and Mountain Bike Vermont are at it again in 2016, bringing you Vermont’s best antidote to the winter blues—Überwintern! What is Überwintern you ask? It’s a day of fatbike revelry on powder-packed single track for those souls brave enough to keep charging on two wheels through the depths of winter.
Join us Saturday January 9th, 2016 for a day of fatbike group rides, demos, and hearty brews around warm fires. “We couldn’t be more stoked!” says event founder Ryan Thibault of MTBVT. “As a fatbiker myself, it’s a privilege to add a little MTBVT flair to the fatbike phenomenon!”
Now in its fourth year, Überwintern 2016 will be staged out of the Sushi Yoshi parking lot situated on the Stowe rec’ path and in close proximity to the Cady Hill Forest trailhead. Registration, group ride departures, demos, and lunch will be all take place at Sushi Yoshi, aka Überwintern HQ.
Your ticket price includes on-site demos, group rides, lunch (with both carnivorous and veggie options), as well as beverages. So pump up those tires, break out the extra layers, and get ready for a bike festival unlike any you’ve ever seen.
