RWGPS Route Links
The Routes We'll start in Verona this week, and head out into the lovely rural countryside to the west. The A, B and C routes will all make there way over to Tamworth, and stop in at either the Quartermaster's Store & Quirky Café or the A1 Corner Restaurant. The D route will ride a scenic loop around Verona.
 
Car Pooling Please consider!

Post Ride Refreshments The parking lot this week has a great pavilion with lots of picnic tables. Thus, leave some post ride refreshments in your car (a thermos of hot coffee, a beer cooler, some munchies or sandwiches?), and hang around after the ride and chat for a bit before heading back into town.
