Riding at Lake Tahoe

I heard somewhere that there is a paved multi-use
path around the lake, but don't find anything online. Is this just a rumor,

Did a google search. There is a triathalon there in October. Pics of last years
race and they show a paved(macadam) path around the lake.

No, that's not what I'm looking for. That appears to be a hiking trail,
often sand surface (which would make it a bit rough on a LWB-USS bike).

If you're a strong Advanced (capital A!) rider, you can ride the roads
all around the lake, it's 73 miles (google the annual "ride big blue"
for more info).

Their are no paved bike trails all the way around the lake, just in
the following parts:

Truckee River Bike Path - 9 Miles - Beautiful, follows the sedate
Truckee River, you'll be tempted to do what I did which was ditch the
rental bike and rent a tube! Trailhead is in Tahoe City.

West Lake Tahoe Bike Path - 20 3/4 Miles - Some highway shoulder use
is required. Tahoe City to Sugar Pine Point State Park. You'll
encounter some sharp bends and little hills that might be difficult to
negotiate on a bent.

South Lake Bike Path - 6 1/2 Miles - City of South Lake Tahoe - Very
busy, lots of walkers.

Lakeshore Boulevard Bike Path - 6 1/4 Miles in Incline Village

Good luck!
