About this tour
A 2–3 hour electric dirtbike ride through Lake Tahoe's private off-road trails, suited to riders with solid bike experience and moderate fitness. You'll pilot dual-motor 2x2 bikes—no gears or clutch to manage—over rugged mountain terrain with lake views, after a short skills briefing. This is the area's only dedicated e-dirt biking outfitter, and the bikes and trails are closed to standard rentals.
