I rode one

over the weekend. It was a Specialized and rode much better than I expected. Of course it cost $2,200 so it should ride nice. The salesman made the point that the cheaper ones are much heavier, which would make a big difference. The problem is that while they would be fun when there's 6-8 inches of snow, as winter gets unto full swing there'll be three feet of snow so the only place you'll be able to ride is plowed roads and sidewalks. I could get a set of studded snow tires on my bike and do the same thing. Since there was no snow I got out on my bike and reminded myself why I usually put it up long before it snows. The speed, in addition to the wind makes you really cold and I hate riding when I'm all bundled up. So I think I'm going to pass on the fat tired bikes for now.
