If you’re in the Warsaw/Winona Lake community, chances are you’ll see an invasion of bikes. That’s because the 15th annual Fat & Skinny Tire Fest is happening this weekend! Friday night activities will be happening in downtown Warsaw with the Saturday and Sunday events pretty much in Winona Lake. They usually have food trucks around so check ‘em out if you’re feeling hungry!
