Fatfest started out as FatFod due it being based in the Forest of Dean.
Now, 6 years on, it’s become FatFest as we’ve moved further afield.
As you will see in the video, things are very relaxed, and basically a big social get together, where we can discuss tyre widths and other strange topics, oh and occasionally pop out for a ride.
