MORE INFO ABOUT THE RIDES
Tahoe Triple Crown: named for its 3 big climbs, boasts 5 hrs, 5,000 vertical feet, 30 miles. Check the route HERE.
Power Loop: if you're not quite ready for the Tahoe Triple Crown, we have the fun and friendly Power Loop that starts and ends at the Corral Trailhead. The Power Loop is less suffering but no less fun. Named for time spent on Powerline Trail, this is a great option for anyone who wants to score the benefits of the ride! This ride is 7 miles long with just over 1000 feet of climbing. If you want to enjoy the trails in Meyers, but save the Triple Crown for another year this is a great option. Check the route HERE.
Rest stops will be in Big Meadow and the Corral parking lot. The two rest stops will offer free snacks + beverages for registered riders. BikeMinded will be offering repair capabilities at the rest stop in lower Corral parking lot. This is not a supported ride, so prepare for a long day with plenty of snacks, water, sunscreen, and bike tools!
START TIME? There is no official start time. Start at your leisure, but plan on joining in for the Tahoe Mountain Bike Festival starting at 1pm on Sunday afternoon!
Register in-person options:
- At the Saturday Bike Demo (see us at the TAMBA tent between 9-4)
- At Paradise Park (the location of the Festival later that day) beginning at 7:30 a.m.
Pro tip: Leaving your car at the park means you'll be extra ready for the festival party after your long ride.
Your tax-deductible ticket scores you commemorative Tahoe Mountain Bike Festival gear. Folks who choose to donate more will be rewarded accordingly. All proceeds go to building and maintaining Tahoe trails – in support of TAMBA’s mission.

FAQ
Q: I won’t be in the Lake Tahoe area, can I still participate?
A: Of course! To be part of the action just go for a big ride, crush some vertical feet in your area. Share it on social media with #tahoemtbfest and tag @tambatahoe for a chance to be featured.
Q: I am still getting into mountain biking and 30 miles is too much. Are there options for shorter rides?
A: Getting out for a ride is all that matters, along with understanding your limits. We have a few options for intermediate riders, but feel free to create your own route that challenges you within reason. Any ride counts towards participation. Check out a few recommended routes.
Q: What does my registration include?
A: Purchasing a registration is a tax-deductible donation to TAMBA, and includes Tahoe Mountain Bike Festival gear based on the level in which you supported. The ticket along with the Ride log will enter you into prize categories that will be awarded at the end of the virtual festival. TAMBA’s Tax ID is: 91-1852297 for tax deduction purposes.
A: How can I support mountain biking in Lake Tahoe?
