The basic tour route is approximately 420 miles long and averages 60 miles per

options for riders who wish greater challenges.
For 2011, we will again offering a Lake Tahoe Prologue Option. This option will be an pre-extension of the Sierra to the Sea tour making for a 10 day route. With this option you will begin in South Lake Tahoe and end in Bear Valley to join the regular Sierra to the Sea tour. You can also select to do only the 3 day option. See LTP Option Overview for more information.
Sierra to the Sea and the Lake Tahoe Prologue are organized by the Almaden Cycle Touring Club of San

kind in California. See our Staff page for the upcoming tour.
