September 14th - 11th Annual Lake Tahoe Drive

It is that time of year again for our Lake Tahoe drive. Our Lake Tahoe drive is one of the best drives we offer during the year, as it is the most "couple" friendly drive. This year we are changing things up a bit by adding some fun optional decals to the mix. The decals are of the image below, and are from the same type of decals we used for our Yellowstone and Grand Tetons road trip.

They DO NOT HARM you paint! If you wish to purchase a set of these re-usable decals as a moment of the drive, they can be ordered at our store: PURCHASE YOUR TAHOE DECALS HERE:
Cost for the two decals is $20



Starting Point:
Date: 9/14/3
Time: 8:00am – 8:30am (Leaving on the 30)
Address: Starbucks, 4311 Town Center Boulevard, El Dorado Hills, CA 95762

Lunch Stop:
Time: ~12:30pm
Address: Harveys Lake Tahoe, 15 U.S. 50, Stateline, NV 89449
Parking: Back lot off Lake Parkway (first right off the parkway )

What to BRING:
Please remember your two way radio.

For those who wish to make this an overnight adventure, we are staying at:

Rodeway Inn Casino Center
4127 Pine Blvd, South Lake Tahoe, CA, 96150
(530) 541-7150
Cost for a single room is $89.00 a night plus taxes and fees.

The FULL day drive this year will cover 285 miles from start to finish. We will be exploring many of the great back roads around Tahoe, as well as stopping for a few photos along the route. If you wish to run the first leg to Tahoe, it will cover 162 miles of back roads.

I'll try to make it to this. I'll have a newborn son sometime this month so I don't know for sure. Crossing fingers that I will be able to make it. :)

Just a end of the week bump. Here are some answers to to a few questions raised.

1. NO - this is not a couples only drive. Any and all are welcome
2. NO - you do not need to buy decals. They are optional as noted in the post
3. There is no cost for the drive if you wish to attend

If you are attending please reply to this thread or email me at norcal.drivers@gmail.com so I can let the lunch stop know roughly how many of us are coming.

looks like a fun cruise, roads to and around Tahoe are great. Just need to decide if I wanna blow through the gas or not :)

Lol this is a pretty far drive. I may do the shorter 162 mile route vs the 285 mile one.

Here are some images from last year. You can see all the images under past photos on the NorCal drivers webstie. We had 31 cars on the drive last year from McLaren, Ford GT, Porsche, BMW, Audi, Grand National and other (forgt sorry).

The full loop we planned from El Droado Hills to Rocklin is 285 miles.

If you want the shorter route you can to the ED to Tahoe leg and then take HWY 50 back as lunch is in South Shore.

You bought the car to drive it so come on out and enjoy with fellow gear heads. :thumbsup:

Is this just a cruise or are people actually going to use their gas pedals and have a little bit of fun on the turns. Being safe of course.

We run two groups, front is the gas pedal guys and the back of the pack is the cruisers.

You are Sacramento based and never done a run with us before?

On the fence. It's a 2.5-3 Hour drive just to get there for me. Depends what I have going on around then.

Blue Lake Inn at Tahoe

** If you are considering the getting a set of decals, please order before 9/9 so I can have them made in time. Please make sure to include your top two number choices when you order**
