    Another year I don't get to participate because our town drank too much of their beer.

    And if they absolutely don't want to come here, go to Prescott at least.

    Ahh...tour de fat....

    It really was fun the first few years; then it just got too out of hand for the small venues in Flagstaff...to the point where as a local I'd just avoid the entire downtown area, especially with my daughter. Too many folks beyond drunk and riding for it to be safe.

    A great party; unfortunately, the weakness of most locals here are bicycles and good beer....

    I'm gonna miss it though.

    its just a reason to drink new belgium beer. you walk around and people watch, listen to a live band or two, and take turns riding funky bikes if you want.
