We’ve submitted a permit for an Enduro race at Cedro on March 21st. It has already passed internal review, and we’re just waiting on a few final approvals before it becomes official.
With limited time between final approval and race day, we’ve decided to start spreading the word now.

Registration will be handled through the Meetup app. To access sign-ups, you’ll need to join the AMBA group within the app.
Message below with questions, we will answer them!
More details coming soon — stay tuned!

🚨The USFS has announced approval of Class 1 pedal-assist e-bikes on approximately 112 miles of trails in the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU) at Lake Tahoe in California and Nevada.🚨
This ruling has come following completion of the NEPA review process, significant research, collaboration with user groups, and public comment.
What is a Class 1 e-bike: an e-bike equipped with a motor that provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling (no throttle) and that ceases to provide assistance when the e-bike reaches the speed of 20 miles per hour.👍
