I waited way to long to ride this trail - Stinger Trail - Lake Tahoe, Ca

Long story short a car accident blocking the road kept me from riding the Stinger trail years ago. After bumping into an old coworker on Strava we ended up riding the TRT from Spooner over to Stinger and I finally got a chance to ride this trail. I can't believe I waited this long.

Kingsbury Stinger is my favorite downhill trail in Tahoe. Some sections are where old log flumes ran, Very few riders on it most days. Great video.

@B1KER 11 месяцев назад

Thanks man!

Hey Robert, FYI for you. Top of Spooner is a little over 7100'. Lake elevation is about 6200. And that first part of climbing that TRT isn't punchy, its vertical. :)

@B1KER 2 года назад

Hahahaha not nearly as bad as climbing up that fire road next to Cold Creek.

@davidstepro7486 Год назад

@@B1KER Agree, that fire road is a bitch which is why you hardly ever see people climbing it.

I used to come out to Tahoe to snowboard. Always loved it out there. Never thought about riding MTB there but I definitely need to add it to the bucket list.

@B1KER 2 года назад

There is a lot of great riding up there.

@Downhillbothways Месяц назад

Awesome ride, bro! Definitely gonna head out there are some time!

Beautifully shot and narrated Robert. Love those big rock sections, it's like a tech playground. The mix of flow is really cool too. I have yet to get to the west coast, but I will put this place on the list.

@merickrickman4092 2 года назад

Coming over from Spooner is a sneaky beast of a climb. Lots of areas with embedded rocks that just sap the power out of your legs, plus it actually starts at a little over 7k and goes to about 8500'. Early season, like you hit it, is really good, later in the year you ride a few beaches down low :). Have you thought about doing Rose to Toads? Great ride, great people, great scenery and funds go to building and maintaining our trails up here. Keep it up!

@B1KER 2 года назад

I’ve thought about it, but damn it’s a big day!

@merickrickman4092 2 года назад

@@B1KER It'd be a good personal challenge :). It's not horrible. Leave early in the morning is the best way, it gets pretty warm. There's also lots of drop out trails too. I had to drop early twice. Once right after I broke my pelvis on Corral, and then the next year crashing a hundred yards past the Bench on Spooner, more mental on that one than pain. It's worth it, you can do it :)

@heywood165 2 года назад

Great to see you out on the bike enjoying your riding. Keep it up, it’s been too long!

Just did this trail, had my wife shuttled us a few times… we stayed about 1/2 mile from Stinger trail in Kingsbury… really fun trail, every time we rode; we found new features… so explore… I had a lot of Fuck yeah! Fuck yeah!!!! Moments and a lot of oh shit i better slow down… cant wait to do it again…

Definitely was super fun!

I did that once. Flume was pretty but not very challenging/fun.

@mtb4l484 2 года назад

Great to see a new ride video! I was just looking at that trail in Trailforks. You can really tell your fitness and riding skill have reached a new high, Gratz! I wonder if you can RainX a GoPro lens and if it would help with water droplets. 🤔

@B1KER 2 года назад

The new one has a coating that is supposed to repel water like you are mentioning.

@mushieslushie 2 года назад

Looks like a nice ride. I wish over the edge was still there. Not sure if they ran a shuttle for this or not but we are lacking shuttles in that area now.

@B1KER 2 года назад

Yeah totally. You could probably leave a rider at the end watching the bikes and have the driver take an Uber back to the car.

@mushieslushie 2 года назад

@@B1KER I'm usually solo. Earlier in July though I rode the Flume shuttle out of Incline, I've done that the past few years now. I also was able to ride the Van Sickle trail as a shuttle. I parked at stagecoach and rode to the hotel, I was then able to get a ride back to my car without the bike.

@determinedskeptic 2 года назад

Rad! Defo a place to ride and enjoy by the looks of it 🤘 Gotta ask though, the flow at the end looks like the Tallboy would've been the one to ride there, but would it have made the chunk higher-up less fun, or even almost not rideable?

@B1KER 2 года назад

The Tallboy probably would have been fine. Overall that bike is capable. It just beats your body up a little more having less suspension.
