Biking

  • Rent-a-Bike
  • or
  • 4-6 per Surrey
  • We had a great experience renting a surrey from Tahoe Bike Company. They were very personable and gave us a MAP that showed all the possible bike routes
  • We ended up biking 10 miles round trip from the shop to Camp Richardson
  • Definitely doable, only once did we have to jump out to push the surrey up a small hill because we were four smaller, less bike-fit ladies.
