The Flume Trail - Great Basin Bicycles - Singletrack - Lake Tahoe - Nevada

For the free GPS trail map with turn by turn directions for this and many other rides in the area, go to:

This trail is one of the most beautiful trails in the world. It sits over 1000 ft above Lake Tahoe and offers stunning views. This section of trail is mostly flat. You do have to climb to get there, but it is worth it. You can see more of the views in my other video at : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6ATTEsKZ6Q
Please always share the trail. We always ride with cowbells to warn other users of our presence. This is a tight trail with dire consequences. Stop to look at the lake.
The bike being chased is a 2009 Yeti 575, and the camera bike is a 2009 Cannondale Rize

@DizzMcFunk Thanks for the comment. By the way, that is me (the owner) that is "smashing it" on the trail. Tons of fun. I am only in 2 vids. This one, and Pioneer Trail. Thanks again for the comment.

@DizzMcFunk Oh, and one more thing, I am usually the one running the Camera Bike.

[MaartePinoy]

Kewl video indeed. Taking the group up there this Saturday and this video got them all fired up to go! Where did You mount the camera by the way?

[GreatBasinBicycles]

@MaartePinoy Maarte,

Thanks for the comment. I mount the camera off a special bracket that I made to hold the camera off the headtube of the bike, just over the front wheel. It gives a lower prospective, and always looks forward.

Thanks again

Cool video. In which direction would you guys say is the most enjoyable ride?

[GreatBasinBicycles]

We like to ride the trail from south to north. Most people ride it the other direction, but when you go from south to north, you get to see all of the lake, not just the small north side when you ride it the other direction.
