Fulton Cosmic Stallion

#PartyBrand

The Fulton Gran Fondo is many things, but it's centered around two in particular: Bikes & Beer. This year we took the importance of those two pillars to heart and set forth on a path to elevate and highlight them as best we know how. We'd tossed around the idea of collaborating on a beer with our friends All-City Cycles for years, but the right opportunity never presented itself.

Until now.

Taking inspiration from their premier Gravel/All-Road/Endurance bike, The Cosmic Stallion, we've created a classic Wheat Ale highlighted by a burst of citrus and punctuated by Fulton's signature style of Midwestern approachability.  It's the quintessential "bike beer" and to us represents Summer in a can.  It's debuting Friday, May 11th at the Friday Fondo Feast and you can grab your tickets here. And when you do so, get automatically entered to win an All-City Cycles' Cosmic Stallion bike.

Fulton Fondo Friday Feast

Join us for a pre-ride feast at packet pickup on Friday, May 11 at our NE MPLS brewery. Chef Scott Pampuch and The Fulton Taproom Kitchen crew will be cooking up goodies fit for someone about to ride 100 miles on a bike. We're going whole-hog again this year with the help of our friends at Tangletown Gardens, which means pulled pork and a slew of other tasty items are on the menu. Friday night's live entertainment is provided by local musician Andy Cook who will be playing songs from his new release. You can buy tickets now by clicking here (space is limited).

This event is open to Gran Fondo riders and the public

Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door.

Ticket cost includes one food serving and one Fulton Beer.

Custom #FultonGranFondo gifts from Fulton partners  Loll Designs and Epicurean.

#FULTONGRANFONDO REGISTRATION FEE GOES UP MAY 1ST (MONDAY!) to $59.95

The Fulton Gran Fondo-Fondo length

The original, the big one, the Gran Fondo. 100 miles encompassing urban riding, trails, suburban county roads and makes stops at 3 aid stations along the way. Just $54.95 through the end of April. Your ride registration comes with a custom Fondo t-shirt, a free beer at the block party, and a goody bag of fun stuff. Click here to register.

Fulton Gran Fondo- Medio route

Are you new to cycling? Maybe you're just getting your season off to a solid but moderate start (aren't we all with all the April snow?). Maybe sitting down for 100 miles isn't in the cards for you. Let's be honest, 50 miles is still plenty far for a Saturday morning! Whatever the reason, the Medio is here for you. It's all the fun but half the distance, and still offers an aid stop in the middle. It's $54.95 through the end of April, so move quickly to save some $$. Your ride registration comes with a custom Fondo t-shirt, a free beer at the block party, and a goody bag of fun stuff. Click here to register.

Fulton Gran Fondo Block Party

Minnesota could use a party after the Winter we endured and the Spring we virtually skipped over. Well, we're here to fulfill that need. Back in its 5th year, we're amplifying all the things you've come to love about the Fulton Gran Fondo. Live music by killer local bands? Check. Top-notch food providers including our own Taproom Kitchen? Check. A gathering of some of Fulton's partners with activities abound? Check. And last but not least, the beer. We've got all your Fulton year-round favorites and of course our newest summer release: Cosmic Stallion.
