Bowling Green, KY--Looking for something to do in Kentucky the weekend
prior to the Nats? Check out the Holley Somernites Powercruise in the
quaint little town of Somerset, KY.
The Holley Somernites Power

cruise destination of Somerset, KY where it will meet up with 1,500
other cars who regularly converge on the historic city square one
weekend per month throughout the summer. The tour legs will be leaving
the morning of July 26th from Knoxville, TN; Cincinnati, OH, Bowling
Green, KY, Manchester, KY and Louisville, KY that morning on the 26th.

“The
Somernites Cruise has become a huge attraction over the last few years
in our home state of Kentucky”, said Holley’s Director of Marketing,
Bill Tichenor. “It really is a national type event drawing cars from
all over the east coast, but it still has that small town appeal. We
had over 600 cruisers last year and that was in bad weather. In total
there were over 2,000 cars in Somerset. Once in town, a cruise-in is
held in the historic downtown. When the downtown cruise-in is over, the
event continues on the strip where cars cruise well into the night.
You’ll see everything from street rods, to muscle cars to slammed
trucks. It’s just about car enthusiasts enjoying cars. We’re really
proud of the folks over in Somerset. They’ve done it right and we’ve
decided to join in for a second year”, said Tichenor.
Holley
will give away door prizes from each of their performance divisions
including Weiand intakes, Hooker Headers, NOS Nitrous, Earl’s Plumbing,
and FlowTech Exhaust throughout the event.
Somerset sits at the
end of the Cumberland Parkway on the edge of the Daniel Boone National
Forest, near Lake Cumberland and the Cumberland Falls State Resort
Park. There are scenic routes or you can take parkways and interstates
back to Louisville. Just don’t wait too long to make your reservations,
as the town will be totally sold out of rooms.
