Walking on The Moon? Get there with a Moonlander


Walking on the Moon -- something automatically triggers this song in my head when I see or read about the Surly Moonlander,  Moonlander you ask ... think "fat bike" or "snow bike" ... one of those mountain bikey looking things with wheels/tires that look like they're on steroids.  Check out the Surly website and peruse a few YouTube clips of the Moonlander or it's cousin "Pugsley" to see them in action.  There are even some Fat Bike races in some of the snowy spots around the land.

Now you're probably thinking they look like a whole lot of fun and it would be cool to try one out .. now if only -- stop right there because our friends at Syracuse Bicycle will be offering a Fat Bike Demo session this Saturday (1/28/12) at Long Branch park in Liverpool from 12 to 3.  This is your chance .. get out of the house and off the trainer and hop aboard a fat bike... no fee and an almost guarantee of a few smiles on a unique set of wheels.
