The annual event will help kick off Tahoe Bike Month

LAKE TAHOE, Calif. & Nev. — May 30, 2026 — On the evening of Wednesday, June 3, volunteers will fan out across more than four miles of paved paths in South Lake Tahoe to prepare them for the summer biking season and the start of Tahoe Bike Month.

The cleanup begins at 5 pm at five meeting locations dotted along the bike route between the South Tahoe “Y” and Ski Run Boulevard. Kids, adults, residents, and visitors are all warmly welcome and encouraged to arrive on their bikes, scooters, skateboards, chairs, or feet.

Following the cleanup at 7:30 pm, the whole community is welcome to The Hangar on Lake Tahoe Boulevard for a Tahoe Bike Month Kickoff celebration, featuring live music from Boogie Zoo, food truck snacks for purchase, and happy hour pricing at the bar. Cleanup volunteers will be treated to a meal as thanks for their effort.

Everyone is encouraged to be Car-Free and Care-Free during the month of June by keeping their cars parked and instead using lake-friendly transportation, including buses, microtransit shuttles, destination shuttles, bikes, and e-scooters. Find more options at keeptahoeblue.org/summer.
