Location: Mesquite, Nevada
Description: Head east out of town on the frontage road SR 91. You can go as far as you’d like.
Comment: We turned around at Littlefield. It get’s pretty hot so consider heading out early. This easterly route gets a little closer to the water than the westerly route, but you’re still a ways away.

Location: Mesquite, Nevada
Description: Head out of town on SR 170 which is Riverside Road. After about 15 miles it gets to the interstate and you have no choice but to turn around.
Comment: The ride is mostly rolling hills. It can get very hot, so you may want to ride early in the morning. The river is off to the north and makes for a nice view. Our ride was cut short due to road construction.

Location: Lake Tahoe, NV
Description: This rides starts at the California-Nevada line on the south side of the lake. It then heads clockwise around the lake back to the starting point.
Comments: The ride includes breathtaking scenery, challenging climbs and long down hill runs. I suggest that it’s best taken on as part of a group ride such as the Tour de Tahoe put together by Bike The West. There can be a lot of traffic on the narrow road that often lacks any shoulder and has many steep drop offs. Few rides offer this kind of scenary. It can be pretty chilly early in the morning, so you may want to dress warmly and carry something to shed layers as you progress.
