Tour de Fat San Francisco Photographs
THIS JUST IN!
The Krank-Boom-Clank bike mangling boys hit New Belgium Brewing’s Tour de Fat on Sat., July 19th. Photos seen at Flickr.
Word has it that the festival was a rollicking good time, replete with a rowdy Chicago-based marching known as Mucca Pazza, the vivacious and verily pink Sprockettes, plus more bands, the helmeted madness of Cyclecide’s rodeo of truly bizarre wheels, and so much ambrosial beer (and yet more delights such as the New Orleans style marching wake for the dying love of cars via a child’s Cadillac Escalade carried upon shoulders on a litter and the scads of costumed bike fanatics in attendance too)!
See everyone’s Flickr shots from the day.

I was there! Lots of fun, I didn’t make the photos though, but you guys were pretty cool. And dressed sharp! See you at the Regatta, I’m bringing my whole family!
Cheers,
Jim T

Esteemed JimT,
I trust we were able to chat at Tour de Fat. Deepest apologies if my memory absconds. So many agreeable and uncommon folk abounded there upon the verdant green of Golden Gate Park in that grand old dame of cities known as San Francisco.
Regardless, we shall see you and your kin soon enough at the Regatta! Until then, good Sir…
