A fantastic metric century ride out in the west desert. We will start in Stockton and ride to Vernon and back. Please be aware of the limited convenience store stops for water (Stockton and Vernon). Also note that the return route deviates near Clover (Rush Valley), to avoid traffic leading back into Stockton. Wind usually blows from the south, so we're likely to be rewarded with an easier return ride. Come join us on this fun ride. Kristeen Phelps will be an assistant ride leader on this ride.
