You missed a great party if you didn’t make it to the Tour de Fat festival Saturday along the Anacostia River.

The tour’s name had nothing to do with body weight. It was part of a national tour sponsored by Colorado’s New Belgium Brewing Co., famous for its Fat Tire brews. Fat tire refers to mountain bikes, rather than what might be around your waist. The festival showcased the Yards Park in all its glory: Bands played along the river bank, families frolicked around the fountain, kids roamed over the new bridge connecting the river trail.
