    Road cycling

    Sand Harbor owes its current existence to the wealthy recluse George Whittell Jr, who inherited a vast fortune in the early 20th century. The wealthy heir bought 40,000 acres (nearly the entire Nevada side of Tahoe) with plans to develop large casinos and resorts. However, as he grew older he became more paranoid and reclusive and none of his grand plans came to fruition. Eventually most of his Tahoe holdings became public lands and the East Shore, Sand Harbor included, remain much less developed than other areas around Tahoe.
