What’s ahead for the Tahoe Pyramid Bikeway
By Janet Phillips, Reno Gazette-Journal
Construction work starts this summer on the next-to-last stretch of the Tahoe Pyramid Bikeway through the Truckee Canyon west of Reno. Engineering work is underway to complete the last steep section in 2018.
When these last four miles are finished, bike riders from Reno will be able to ride to Truckee and on to Lake Tahoe, realizing a dream of many local adventurers and creating another tourist draw for the region.
The Truckee Meadows Water Authority opened to the public its utility maintenance road into the Truckee Canyon at Verdi in 2013. The trail runs along the canyon walls, through a forest and then by the Truckee River starting at the Fleish footbridge.
