Fat tire biking is becoming more and more popular among outdoor enthusiasts and adventurers, and is a fast growing activity in Maine.  It’s a great way to see the backcountry and get some healthy exercise in the process.  For those of you who don’t know much about fat bikes, it’s exactly what you would imagine- a bike with fat tires.  The larger-sized tires make it much easier to gain traction on softer terrain like snow and sand, making them a perfect option for year-round cycling.  If you’re interested in trying out a fat bike, below are some places in Maine that rent the bikes.  Most are near trails, and if they aren’t we’ve also listed a bunch of trails that are great for fat tire biking.
