Get ready to shift gears - literally. We're excited to introduce a brand-new event under the 66 Adventure banner: The Fat Bike Weekend Warrior.
This is not your average weekend ride. Think: frozen wilderness, remote Arctic communities, and a route that's as breathtaking as it is brutal. A true 3-day stage race designed for fat bike enthusiasts who want more than just a challenge - they want a story to tell.
Three Days. Three Stages. One Arctic Adventure.
Starting in Inuvik, the Fat Bike Weekend Warrior takes riders south along the legendary Dempster Highway, following the snow-covered landscape to Fort McPherson. That's just the beginning.
From there, competitors will head west along a private Ice Road that few outside the region even know exists. It's a stretch of pure Arctic magic that leads to the remote community of Aklavik, before turning north again - back across frozen rivers, icy tundra, and soul-stirring scenery - returning riders to Inuvik to complete the loop.
This is Arctic Canada at its most raw, wild and remote - and you'll be riding right through the heart of it.
Designed for Weekend Warriors - Built for Legends
We've dubbed this one the "Weekend Warrior" edition - but don't be fooled. This isn't a gentle spin on groomed trails. It's a full-fat (bike) test of endurance, grit, and winter riding skill.
You'll face:
- Three stages of ultra-remote riding
- Frozen roads and ice-covered trails
- Minus 20°C (and lower!) temperatures
- Breath-stealing beauty that only the Arctic can deliver
Whether you're an experienced fat biker or a 6633 veteran looking for a new fix, this race is the perfect blend of challenge and accessibility.
Not Just a Race - A Community Experience
Along the way, you'll get a taste of true Northern hospitality. From the warm welcome in Fort McPherson, to the shared stories in Aklavik, this event isn't just about the miles - it's about connecting with the land, the people, and your fellow riders.
Every checkpoint. Every stage. Every frozen breath - it's all part of a shared experience that goes beyond just a race. It's a weekend you'll never forget.
Limited Spaces. Unlimited Adventure.
The Fat Bike Weekend Warrior is a small field event - so if you're thinking of joining us, don't hang around.
If the idea of riding across ice roads, through snowstorms, and under the northern lights speaks to you - this is your race.
