Adventure Tips
Start on the Legacy Trail for Easy Warm-Up
Use the flat, well-maintained Truckee River Legacy Trail to get comfortable on your rental bike before heading into more technical terrain.
Check Your Tire Pressure Daily
Proper tire pressure can make or break your ride, especially on fat tire e-bikes navigating mixed terrain around Truckee.
Bring Hydration and Snacks
Even on moderate rides, having water and portable snacks is key — local stops can be sparse on singletrack.
