New Belgium's "Tour de Fat" (Atlanta, GA - 2012)

Summer 2012

Let me first start out by saying it was a complete honor to be asked by New Belgium Brewery to photograph Atlanta's first annual "Tour de Fat!" For those who don't know, Tour de Fat is a constumed bike parade (3 mile ride around the city) then ends back at the same park it started but with tons of stages, vendors, bands, tent shows and of course New Belgium beer! One of the coolest things they do is called "trade in your car for a bike" where one lucky indiviual is selected to trade in their old car, keys and title for a brand new top of the line bicycle from New Belgium! This year's event was a complete success minus the 106 degree temps outside! Despite the hot weather hundreds of ATLiens made it out to the event and good times were had by all! Here's a few shots from a summer day that will not be forgotten anytime soon. Can't wait to do it again next year! (A special thanks to Chip Newell)
