As of October 2012, SolrNet comes with a built in Location class for supporting GeoSpatial searching. I would recommend getting the latest version from source - SolrNet on GitHub or from the nightly builds and using this class.

For queries, SolrNet added SolrQueryByDistance for creating geofilt or bbox queries. See SolrNet - Querying for more detials.
