Photos from the Tour de Fat... my limited perspective... and just a few of the many photos from the Tour de Fat

 

Space Alien theme to the bicycle themed festival called the Tour de Fat

Carnies in orange astronut suits

and then these silver suit alien people things

no I do not know how to spell astronaut

 

 

the day starts with a cruiser pace parade ride

costumes encouraged

 

it is a social day

all sorts of people from all different corners of the local cycling culture

Phil of Bicycle Space is tooting his trumpet

 

there is Phil of BicycleSpace out tooting his trumpet again

I think that is a Bike Arlington VooVooSuela

either way

Phil again... Phil and I talked about doing some DC mountain bike stuff... maybe an event at Fort Dupont

 

yes... my limited perspective

hopefully I have some good photos from the Bike Valet

not sure if I was able to salvage the photos from the Bike Pit

the Bike Pit at the Tour de Fat is always a highlight for me

 

yes... costumes encouraged

lots of good costumes out there this year

my Gnome costume could use some tightening up

or maybe a full new costume for the new year

but really... my beard does speak gnome

 

one of the better spectacles at the bicycle parade at the 2015 Tour de Fat
