- Wandering Down to FranktownRC Willey, Reno, NV
This is a ride down to Franktown and back using a variation route. The nice thing about Franktown rides is that once we get onto old 395 we dont see traffic lights. There is a 30 mile stretch on this ride with no stoplights.
We start at RC Willey's and head over to do a South Reno loop before hitting old 395. We go over Steamboat and Rio Wrangler and Western Skies to head down Toll road and rejoin Veterans before heading down old 395. We take old 395 all the way to Franktown Road and after 4.3 miles of Franktown we turn back up 395. We then take Veterans back up to RC Willey's.
