See all- Mission to Red Rock -- Out in the Northern BooniesNorth Valleys Regional Park, Reno, NV
This is a ride we have done only a couple of times and typically in the fall or early spring. Because the weather has been pretty cool we will start late. We will watch the weather as there is a small chance of rain predicted which could increase or decrease as the week goes on.
This road goes about 25 miles out into the boonies to the North of the city and I had never ridden it until a week ago. The road bears some similarity to Foothill road that we often ride down near Genoa. It is a country road with spread out residences along it. The difference between Red Rock and Foothill is that the Rollers are bigger on Red Rock and Red Rock does have some gentle but extended climbs. There is a shoulder for portions of Red Rock but it comes and goes, but the traffic is low on Red Rock (at least during my test ride) and there is no real destination other than residences at the end of the road. I did enjoy my test ride.

- Ride around Caughlin and SomersettPola Poke, Reno, NV
The weather reports seem to change by the hour. We'll watch them to see if the predicted conditions change closer to the event. I usually don't repeat courses but I liked this one and only a small group did it last week.
This is a course that is not a Verdi Ride but is a unique course that goes up Caughlin Ranch by an unusual route and then heads over to Somersett to once again do the Somersett parkway (newly repaved and smooth) and then wanders around west Reno a bit.
