Ride Description

72 miles of fresh mountain air + shoreline views… this ride is always unforgettable. We’re so excited to roll with you all again! We will have a SAG vehicle again this year for rider support. Questions anytime as we get closer πŸ’›

⏰ Timing
β€’ Meetup: 6:30am β˜•οΈ
β€’ Roll-out: 7:00am sharp ⏱️

πŸ“ Start / End / Parking
β€’ 1040 Emerald Bay Rd (Raley’s Shopping Center) πŸš—βœ…

πŸŽ’ Come Prepared

Bring your full ride kit + β€œfresh legs” πŸ˜…
β€’ πŸ”§ Bike supplies (tube(s), pump/COβ‚‚, levers, multi-tool)
β€’ πŸ§ƒ Snacks + hydration (and extra electrolytes!)
β€’ πŸ§₯ Layers (Tahoe mornings can be chilly)

Before driving up:
β€’ 🎈 Deflate your tires ~10 PSI β€” altitude can increase tire pressure.

πŸ›‘ Planned Stops (about every ~20 miles)

We’ll aim for 3 main regroup/refuel stops πŸŒπŸ’§πŸš»
β€’ Inspiration Point
β€’ King’s Beach
β€’ Captain Pomin Rock Trailhead (top of the last climb) ⛰️πŸ”₯

🌬️ What to Expect (read this part!)

This is a tough, safe, fun day out πŸ’ͺ✨
We’ll be managing:
β€’ πŸ”οΈ Altitude (hydrate + carb up days leading up and during the ride)
β€’ ⛰️ 4,000+ ft elevation gain
β€’ πŸš— Some sections riding close to cars β€” stay alert + predictable

We’ll regroup at the top of climbs and bottom of descents

πŸ—ΊοΈ Route + Navigation

πŸ“² Please download the route before we roll out (if you can).
It helps keep things smooth and stress-free for everyone πŸ™ŒπŸ½

πŸš™ Carpools + Lodging
β€’ Need a ride? Can you take folx? Let us know! πŸš—πŸ’›
β€’ Many folks are heading up Friday afternoon and leaving Sunday πŸ•οΈ
β€’ Book lodging early β€” and consider staying slightly outside the immediate area if you want to save some $$ (and don’t mind a short morning drive) πŸ’ΈπŸ˜‰

πŸ’› AIR Values + Safety

Let’s uphold our AIR values by respecting each other, riding safely, and creating an inclusive space for all ✨

Participation implies acknowledgment that each rider is responsible for their own safety.
We take photos! We ride together to inspire, uplift, and build community 🀍
