About me: Powder Turns and Tour de Burns!
Thanks to all of Tahopia and all our friends, new and old, for making Burning Man '08 such a raging success!
Join us and stay tuned for Tahoe parties, events, fund raising, celebrating and the local DJ scoop.
Who I'd like to meet: Tahopia is a group of extraordinary individuals that have dedicated their lives to,”powder turns and tour de burns.” We live to love, and we love to ride… both on wheels & boards, in the dust and in the snow. We spend our blessed lives manifesting our dreams in beautiful Lake Tahoe. Once a year we gather up our belongings and make a pilgrimage to the Black Rock Desert. While we all have our unique talents, we all share a common sentiment: we love living in a creative, euphoric, utopian world. It was on these founding principles that Tahopia was born. Tahopia has since grown into a strong, positive North Lake Tahoe community. Since 2006, our camp has been a positive, entertaining, and dynamic camp replete with meal plans, fire performers, DJ’s, mad-hatter parties and, of course, our crowning event: the Tour de Burn.
The Tour de Burn was originally conceived as a way to encourage others (and ourselves) to get out of camp during the day and participate in more of the incredible day-time activities that Burning man has to offer. The Tour de Burn is not a race, but a non-competitive and all-inclusive bicycle tour of the exciting streets and areas of our great city. Led by an MC with a bull-horn, participants don custom-made jerseys with the Tahopia logo on the front and a number on the back.
We are avid cyclists in our day-to-day lives, and have always loved the way that Burning Man encourages people who might not otherwise ride bicycles to enjoy some time in the saddle. We want to do our part to promote bicycle advocacy. Although, do to the rough and tough playa, the Tour de Burn toke a break for 2008 and 2009. But maybe we are moving on to bigger and better events...hmmm
