Rollin' a fattie

The 5th annual Silverton Whiteout kicked off last Saturday as fat bikers from ’round the hood and beyond rode lap after lap on a well-groomed 9.2-mile loop for 10 straight hours. With tasty trailside treats like whiskey, bacon and BB guns, making a complete lap without hanging out for an hour or two was the most challenging part of this year’s race course. Here’s a look:
