Sept. 8 marks the 10th annual Tour de Tahoe – Bike Big Blue.
The 72-mile course circumnavigates the highways clockwise around Lake Tahoe in Nevada and California. It includes a challenging 800-foot climb to a rest stop overlooking Emerald Bay and a 1,000-foot climb to Spooner junction.
There are also many short rolling ascents and descents totaling over 4000 vertical feet of elevation gain. The altitude ranges between 6,300 feet and 7,100 feet above sea level and the ride is recommended for conditioned recreational bicyclists, not for beginners. Participants must be at least 14 years of age (no children) and must be experienced in riding roadways.
