  • Mr. Toads first appeared on a map on the 1955 USGS Freel Peak Quad and had the first mountain bikers ride it in 1979 when Gary Bell and Gene St. Dennis started exploring Tahoe’s forests on two wheels. If you want to know more about this iconic trail and how TAMBA over the years has worked hard to “Keep Toads Wild” and open to bikes read the cover story in the current issue of Adventure Sports Journal. The link's in our profile. And join us June 22nd for the Tahoe Mtb Fest or September 2nd for Rose to Toads, to ride the trail with us, hopefully most of the snow is clear by then. #mrtoads #wildride #tahoetrails #tambatahoe #mtb
  • Imagine riding off road from Tahoe to Sacramento… We recently rode a 36-mile section of this future link on the El Dorado Trail, starting in Camino and ending near Folsom. The first 9 miles are paved through Placerville then it quickly turns into a route finding mission following the old railroad line for the next 25+ miles, cutting through farms and oak woodlands. If you keep your eyes peeled there’s single track snaking along the tracks in most places that currently see little use and are being taken over by lush grasses and wildflowers. Poison oak is abundant, and wildlife is all around. Check out the Friends of El Dorado Trail (www.eldoradotrail.com) for more information. Don’t expect a buffed out trail teaming with other mountain bikers, but if you’re looking for something different this spring while waiting for the snow to melt here in Tahoe, go ride the El Dorado Trail. #eldoradotrail #eldoradocounty #railtrail #mtb
  • What a night! Thanks @chris__mcnamara for bringing together the Tahoe and Truckee trails community with a night of Bingo, socializing and presentations from the organizations, land managers and individuals responsible for your favorite places to ride. There’s a synergy between all our organizations learning from one another, being inspired by each other and making connections physically on the land and emotionally through great friendships. Is there a trail renaissance in the Tahoe, Truckee, Reno, Lost Sierra and beyond? We think so. Thanks to everyone involved at @tambatahoe @tahoefund @truckeedonnerlandtrust @tahoerimtrail @sierratrails @truckeebikepark @truckeetrails USFS LTBMU, USFS Truckee Ranger District and more! Plus enough money was raised for each organization to receive $250 #tahoetrails #truckeetrails #sierratrails #trailbuilders #trailstewards #trailadovcates #traillove #onevoicefortrails
  • This Wednesday, at Alibi in Truckee, we pay tribute to the dedicated volunteers and agencies that have built an unprecedented number of new trails in North Lake and Truckee in the last decade. We will hear about new projects and brainstorm how to help continue this great trail building momentum. Rusty Reams from The Great Bingo Revival will keep things rockin' and we have a ton of great prizes. While this event is free, space is limited so please register at the link in our profile. #tahoetrails #northshore #truckee #trailbuilders
  • This is Orion, he's the main builder behind the Hoot Trail in Nevada City and current Treasurer for @b_o_n_c He went through TAMBA crew leader training about 5 years ago "to show the land managers I was legit, even though I've been building trails for years." Our 2019 crew leader training is just a few weeks away...hi five to all the trail builders out there 🙏 especially building trails in nearby areas when Tahoe is still covered in snow! #trailbuilder #hoottrail
