Somersett and Virginia Lake

This ride begins at the Lillo Eatery (which is in the same location as the Pola Poke --new name) Corner of McCarran and Plum. We will gather to sign in at 10:45am and prepare ourselves to roll at 11:00am.

This ride starts off as the traditional Verdi Ride by going up Caughlin and then over to Mayberry via Plateau. The difference is that this ride does some wandering up in Somersett before taking a bit of Mae Ann and Robb to descend 7th street. We wind over to roll around Virginia Lake before returning up a bit of Plum to the start.
