September 23, South Lake Tahoe - exploratory ride from unit

Lisa has a trail out the back yard, along side the South Truckee River, that heads out to join more trails in the hills.  Rode some local trails in the utility district to Pioneer Road.  Crossed that and hooked up with the "Powerline Trail" to Oneidas Road.  Climbed the steep pavement for 2miles to "Corral Trail".  Rode that for 1/4 mile and branched off for a swoopy, curvy descent on "Sidewinder" to "Incense Cedar" to the "Powerline Trail". Climbed that until we took a left and headed back to Pioneer Road.  Basically took local trails all the way back to the house.  15  miles.
