Time Tested Gear: DryGuy Warm N’ Charge
Time Tested Gear: DryGuy Warm N’ Charge

Mountain magazine bike test director Nick Truitt in Breckenridge, CO. (photograph Lisa Seaman) With a fat bike, your worst ski day could become a highlight. My friends and I are zipping through the wooded foothills west of Boulder, Colorado, on a shite snow day. An inch-deep crust hides four inches of depth hoar. On stretches without snow: glare ice. Any softer and we’d endo into a tangle of juniper. Any slicker and we’d slide out of each turn. But our five-inch-wide tires pumped to a squishy five psi grip the crud snow like rubber tank treads. One minute we’re railing a…...
