SUMMARY:Pony Express Bicycle Camping in Lake Tahoe\, California
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”teammateRow”][vc_column width=”1/4″ el_class=”teammateImage”][vc_single_image image=”74655″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”” image_hovers=”false”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″ el_class=”teammateDescription”][vc_column_text css=””] \n🚨NEW ROUTE ALERT🚨 July 25-26 we’ll be debuting a new overnighter in the South Lake Tahoe area made just for us by Jen Violet. It hops on the historic Pony Express Trail\, and visits 3 different lakes! \nThe Details: July 25th\, park on the north side of the west end of D Street\, then ride over to Tahoe Gear Exchange where the nice folks there will be hosting our start at 9:30am. Quick rider’s meeting\, then we roll out at 10am sharp. \nThis is self-supported overnight bikecamping on gravel and dirt roads in the Tahoe Lake Basin. 51 miles\, with 4015 feet of climbing\, spread over two days. Tires at least 40c or bigger recommended for this terrain. We’ll briefly hop on the Tahoe Rim Trail\, so expect to hike a bike for a few moments\, otherwise you can expect delightful single-track\, some dirt road\, some bike path\, and a lil bit of riding on pavement.\nThis will be dispersed camping following LNT principles\, so bring: food\, sleep system\, a water filter\, and a way to bury your own poop (trowel). “Bear Resistant Containers” are mandatory in the area of Round Lake where we’ll be camping. Many places like Mountain Sports Chico or Taylor Creek Visitor Center rent hard plastic bear cans\, or you can spend big bucks on lighter Ursack/Adotec bags. As always\, this is a casual open-invite trip. No sag\, and no registration or money are required\, but we’ll do our best to make sure nobody is left behind or stranded. Please download the route just in case though. We all wear helmets and ask that you do as well.\nThese rides are at a conversational pace\, and we stick together. If you want to KOM your Strava or impress people by being first up the climb\, don’t bother coming\, as the best of the party is at the back of the pack. \nWe’re super excited to crack the seal on this beautiful area\, and with 3 lakes\, you’ll wanna bring a swim suit. Link to the route is in my bio\, be sure to download it for offline use in one form or another before the trip\, as cell service can be nonexistent in this area\, and this being a new route… even I won’t be 100% sure where we’re going 😂. Don’t hesitate to jump into the DM’s for any questions\, and we hope to see you there! \nThis event is part of Bikepacking Root’s Community Event Calendar\, where we share bikepacking events across the US and Canada. Bikepacking Roots is not involved in the hosting of this event unless otherwise noted. Please reach out to the organizer for more information.  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
