Great reruns from our youth: The PFN Interview with the Fat Man

We would be remiss if we neglected to tell you that this weekend marks the 25th anniversary of the Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival, one of the grandaddy superevents of mountain biking that we've had the pleasure of experiencing for more than a decade. (We had to do a bit of extra credit this year to get into the notoriously popular 40 mile race.)

Anyway, we wanted to take this opportunity to redirect your attention to our interview with the Fat Man himself, the estimable Mr. Gary Crandall, member of the Mountain Biking Hall of Fame, and race chief extraordinaire. (We prudently caught his ear earlier this summer, before he was drowning in race details.)

And watch for yet another "Local Intelligence" race report next week.
