Ride Description and Notes:
This is a new ride to the calendar and the pace will be 12 miles/hour with a little climbing. This is to meet the needs of our members who are averaging 12-13 miles an hour and would like to ride with the group rather than off the back of the group. The intention is to keep the pace at 12 mi/hr so if this ride appeals to you and you decide to join in, we ask that you maintain this pace throughout the ride. 

Ride day, location, and route could change from week to week so always check the calendar for details.

This was great route when Larry lead it last Tuesday, and Teri asked me to post it for this Wednesday, so those who are doing the Lake Loop on Thursday have an easy day!  She was temporarily blinded by a sunscreen accident, but is on the mend and plans to lead this ride.  I modified the route to avoid the closed section of Garden Bar Rd.  Restrooms are available at the cemetery on Fleming Rd.

Ride Description and Notes:
Loop around beautiful blue Lake Tahoe starting from the transit center in Tahoe City (water and restrooms available). Bring a buddy and ride your own pace. No sweep but we will have periodic regroups +/- every 15 miles. Drop dead gorgeous scenery so bring that camera. We usually stop at Safeway in South lake Tahoe for lunch and refreshment however if that's not your thing then there many other food options in SLT.


Please print your own route sheets or update your navigation computer. Navigation is really simple- keep the lake on your right.

Current weather forecast indicates temperatures at the start in low 50's so bring some layers and be prepared for changeable conditions- late afternoon thundershowers are common although none are in the current forecast.

Sunday rides are at least 40 miles in length, giving moderate level riders the chance to ride a little further than our average distance. You'll find some rides that are flattish and some that are killer hilly. The average pace of the Sunday rides varies hugely based on the distance and the amount of climb. The start location of this ride varies weekly, so check the calendar.

Where: Newcastle Park and Ride Newcastle, CA (map)

Tuesday rides are variable, depending on who leads and who shows up. Generally, the climbing is kept under 2000 feet (usually even less), and the distance is 18-25 miles. Often times, there are no regroups due to the short distances offered. This ride's start location currently starts at the Newcastle Park & Ride.

Coffee and conversation afterwards at Newcastle Produce
