Our Programs
What we’re working on to help Tahoe to become more bicycle friendly.
Bike Kitchen
Recycle your old or unwanted bicycle: LTBC volunteers collect bikes from donors, perform needed repairs and maintenance, and donate them to community members through local social service organizations. Community fix-up events happen about once per month.
Bike Valet
Safe and convenient valet bicycle parking for Tahoe’s community events, at no cost to the bicyclists. A bike valet is like a coat check for bikes!
Regional Bicycle Parking Program
Launched in 2018, the program has resulted in 450 bike racks (900 bike parking spots) and eight fix-it stations on public lands and at businesses in the Tahoe Basin.
Bike Safety
If you’re biking roadways or bike paths in Lake Tahoe, we just want you to be safe. Watch our safety videos and brush up on ten tips for biking in Tahoe.
Advocacy
We advocate to jurisdictions around Lake Tahoe to make sure cyclists’ perspectives are accounted for in public infrastructure planning: invest in bike infrastructure, prioritize the important gaps, and get the details right.
Interactive Bike Map
The Lake Tahoe Bikeways Map is Tahoe’s most comprehensive bike trail map. Find out where to ride and keep up to date on winter path conditions and construction.
