New Belgium's Tour de Fat - Los Angeles

New Belgium's Tour de Fat is back in LA to benefit some of your favorite local bike orgs: LACBC, C.I.C.L.E., and the Bicycle Kitchen. Join us for a celebration of bikes, fun costumes, a parade, performances, beer, and more! LACBC will once again be leading the parade and benefiting from your parade donations, and we'll also be providing free bike valet.

Volunteer! To make this event--particularly the parade--a success, we'll need YOU! We'll need ride marshals, cabooses, and ride support; people to help at our LACBC booth; bike valets; and many more volunteers. If you're interested in volunteering with LACBC, please contact Martin Lopez-Iu at martin@la-bike.org or sign up here. Volunteers will receive free beer tokens, New Belgium's commemorative LA bike license plate.
