Taking a page out of Fredericton's book with their Tour de Beer, this is the Fondo of Fat Bikes! Come and enjoy the great outdoors with beer stops along the way! We will be visiting some of the local craft breweries that Charlottetown offers. Beer, food and of course a guided tour around Charlottetown on the Fatbikes/Winterbikes to all locations.
