• Over 62 miles in length with 8,000+ feet of climbing and 10,000+ feet of descent, this is an amazing (and tough) mountain bike ride. It takes most people all day to complete the ride and showcases some of the best trails linking Lake Tahoe’s North Shore from Mount Rose down to the South Shore, ending on the famous Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. It’s not a race, but the ride can be as intense as you want it to be. Join us and be part of something awesome!For 2022, there will be three rest stops along with a finish-line celebration. The Tahoe Rim Trail Association will be at the Spooner rest stop, and Shoreline Tahoe will provide support with a rest stop just after Kingsbury Grade.  The final smaller rest stop will be at Armstrong Pass.

Sunday, September 25 –  Fall Fundraiser

Come join TAMBA for a ridiculously fun night riding bikes at Corral Trail. Join us and all your closest silly mountain bike friends… it’s the best night of the year – if you like to ride in costume like a kid in the dark!

Recent Trail Work!

July was a busy month on Tahoe trails with regular work happening at all corners of the lake with a variety of projects.
On the west shore, we continue to make great progress on the Kaspian Rim and Meeks Ridge projects. On the north shore we have been busy installing signage, working on the Lower Tyrolian Reroute, and inspecting bridge repairs needed around Incline Lake. On the south shore, we have ongoing work to keep the whitethorn at bay and our volunteers continue to make progress on the Christmas Valley alternate lines.

Fire Danger Closures and Responsible Trail Use

The main note as we roll deeper into summer is to remember that the fire danger will be getting worse and that some land closures have already occurred and more are likely down the road, especially as fire fighting resources start getting limited.

Visit Living With Fire Tahoe to get the latest information on restrictions, fire danger and other fire news in the Lake Tahoe basin

Summer is in full swing here in the Tahoe Basin and the trails are busy!  Avoid the heat and the crowds by getting an early start on your rides. Don’t be afraid to make some new friends by slowing down and saying hi to other trail users! Keep the positive stoke going out there!
