You’d better not laugh. No, seriously, don’t laugh. You’re not here to enjoy yourself. Manuel Scheidegger’s homage to the fat man who dresses in a funny suit and comes into your home while you’re asleep is a little ripper! Who knew that St Nic was so multi-talented – and a fatty rider too?
Oh, and don’t cry either.
“Santa Clause is coming to town. But this year he is coming on a Specialized fatbike. Then Santa Clause is a fatbike-addict. He is freeriding, downhilling and shredding down on his fat tires. He likes to do tricks like wheelie, tailwhip, barspin and nose wheelie. But he also loves to perform some other freestyle or trial stunts by Fat Bike. And in the end, he is trying to do some flatland bmx stunts. Santa is an old man, but when he is riding his mountainbike, he jumps around like a young reindeer.”

“Der Weihnachtsmann kommt in die Stadt. Aber dieses Jahr kommt er auf einem Specialzed – Mountainbike. Dann der Weihnachtsmann ist ein Fatbike-Fan. Er macht Freeride und Downhill auf seine fetten Reifen. Er macht gerne Tricks wie Wheelie, Tailwhip, Barspin und Nosewheelie. Aber er liebt es auch, andere Kunststücke auf seinem Fat Bike zu vollführen. Santa ist ein alter Mann, aber wenn er auf dem Mountainbike fährt, springt er wie ein junges Rentier herum.”
