California Mountain Biking: A New Era of Trail Discovery
We are absolutely thrilled to have a fresh guidebook in our hands - packed with recent, on-the-ground information about mountain bike trails at Lake Tahoe and across all of California. California is a mountain biking paradise unlike any other in North America. From the storied roots of the sport on the slopes of Marin County to the alpine downhills of Lake Tahoe, the bottomless flow of Downieville, and the desert ribbon trails of Southern California, the Golden State delivers riding for every wheel size, every skill level, and every style.
Hundreds of Trails, Endless Ways to Ride
Inside this comprehensive guide we have discovered hundreds of trails spread across more than thirty regions, complete with route descriptions, technical ratings, shuttle and parking information, season recommendations, and the local knowledge that turns a good ride into an unforgettable one. We are excited to learn exactly where to find lift-served descents, where to chase loamy redwood singletrack, and how to time each trip for prime conditions in every corner of the state.
A Guide That Meets Every Rider Where They Are
Whether you are a weekend cross-country rider, an enduro racer hunting fresh lines, a downhill specialist looking for the next bike park, or a touring rider planning an epic California road trip on two wheels, this guide feels like it was written just for you. Practical chapters cover gear, regulations, trail etiquette, post-ride food and lodging, and the conservation work keeping these trails open for the next generation - making us even more eager to ride responsibly and give back.
Time to Pack the Guide and Hit the Trails
If California has been on your riding bucket list, the time to throw a leg over the bike is now. With this book tucked into our hydration packs, all we have to do is pick a region and go.
