So, this past Sunday, the BLBBRBK fatbike relay race finally happened. After 3 straight years of cancellations, I was doubtful of it's fruition, but it actually happened. The race started at 10am. I was, for reasons unknown, under the impression that races would be going on for a good portion of the day, and so I leisurely left Chicago for Campton Hills around 11am. When I arrived at the forest preserve around noon, I found that quite a few people were already heading home for the day. I was fearful that I had already missed it all, but that was not the case. In fact, I arrived just in time to see the Double-Wide Boyz tie for second place on their custom Double-Wide Designz "ButtGrease" SS fatbike with NO CHAIN! Somehow the chain popped off the cog (most likely due to the fact that it was manufactured for Wal-Mart), yet they were able to dominate regardless. #doublewidelife. I think I'm going to dedicate a separate blog post to the glory of the ButtGrease, since I took quite a few photos of it and would like to keep this post "family friendly". Anyways, the weather was relatively nice. It was sunny. The cold was bearable (compared to the current temp). It was a good day for a fatbike race. I had a nice time. Now for the pics:
