There are three routes: 100-mile (profiled above), 60-mile, and 30-mile. All rides start and end at Squaw Valley USA near Lake Tahoe off Hwy 89.

Three Route Options

100 Mile Route: 6,800' vertical gain. After leaving Squaw Valley, ride along the Truckee River to Tahoe City, then enjoy 13 beautiful miles along the shoreline of Lake Tahoe before climbing up to Brockway Summit. Next, it's a long descent into Martis Valley, then a strenuous 8-mile climb into Tahoe Donner. Stop and take in the vistas from the top before descending back into Truckee for a 5-mile cruise along Donner Lake. Climb Old Highway 40 over Donner Summit, then descend to our lunch stop at Cisco Grove. Head back up to the Summit and enjoy an exhilarating and beautiful descent back to Donner Lake. The last 15 are flat miles alongside the Truckee River back to Squaw Valley.

A dinner will be served at the end of the event from 1:30 - 6:00 p.m. with live music provided by NTHS and NTMS Bands.

60 Mile Route: 2,500' vertical gain. Starts in Squaw Valley, follows the Truckee River to Truckee, then 5 miles alongside Donner Lake. A strenuous climb up Old Hwy 40 to Donner Summit provides incredible views along the way. Descend to our lunch stop at Cisco Grove. Turn around and return the way you came, this time enjoying an exhilarating descent to Donner Lake and a 15-mile flat finish back to Squaw Valley.

30 Mile Route: Starts from Squaw Valley to Truckee, then alongside Donner Lake to west end. Lunch is provided at the turn around at Donner Lake rest stop, then head back to Squaw Valley. This is a relatively easy novice ride.
