Polly Ann Trail

After Dryden

June, 2025 by mrsscott8105

The Part of this trail that is maintained by Oakland county is beautiful they are always working on the trail making it better, we start at the beginning off Joslyn and ride to Dryden , after that you can see a sign saying Polly Ann Trail but it's just land next to a building then nothing it's a part of the trail but it's just over grown grass and the path isn't like there, Trail Link and all maps show it goes to Imlay city but after Dryden the trail is never Maintained they really need to make the trail useable or drop that part off the trail map.

Linear Park Pathway

Good

June, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This trail has a nice variety of scenery, as it takes you through playgrounds, urban, swampland and long stretches. It's mostly sunny with a bit shade thrown in.

Wadhams to Avoca Trail

Excellent spot for birding

Lakes Community Trail

Very Rough

May, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This is a pretty bad trail, with pavement being cracked and rutted all throughout, with some cracks being bad enough to launch me out of my seat.

There's nothing even to see except some playgrounds, as the trail is largely urban.

Wadhams to Avoca Trail

very nice trail

May, 2025 by kritzlenny211

Mostly gravel with amazing views.. one of our favorite spots to ride..

Macomb Orchard Trail

Good For Southern Michigan

April, 2025 by cecelia.lapointe

After living in Northern & West Michigan for 15 years, this trail is good but not excellent. If you have ever had the chance to cycle on the White Pine Trail, Leelanau Trail, or others that are more northern/rural, the MOT will suffice for a semi-rural feel. From Romeo to Richmond, you will cycle past farms, small woods, creeks, and the North Branch Clinton River. I ran my bird app and came across some rare birds for the end of April. Migration is done done for spring so I am sure there would be some awesome birds to listen to and observe. I don't think this is trail for a 50+ mile ride. I would say out and back 25-30 miles maximum. I didn't cycle in the suburban sprawl portion. The surface is relatively good and there are a few potholes. The road crossings are typical for the population and as you get more rural, the traffic is less but still be very cautious. People drive so fast in southern Michigan even in semi-rural areas. Overall, great ride, but I would prefer to do longer rides of 30-70 miles in a truly rural setting where my cadence isn't broken by so many road crossings and bad drivers. Try it to see for yourself! Enjoy the ride!

North-South Connector Trail

Great Ride!

March, 2025 by ryanplewis05_tl

Nice smooth pathway and an easy ride between Gibraltar and Elizabeth Park. There's also a short offshoot into the Detroit International Wildlife Refuge, which I'd highly recommend checking out!

Metro Parkway Trail

come on

January, 2025 by leafman1010

Yes there are a lot if bumps and rough patches on this trail, but its better then being stuck inside

Michigan Air Line Trail

Pretty Good

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

The trail is perfectly smooth, with no bumps or pothole that I recall and runs mostly straight throughout. It starts off completely nature oriented with a switch between nature and urban fairly quickly, so if you're looking for a fully nature experience, you might want to try the West Bloom field trail that's just a few miles down the road. The trail is also rather short, clocking in at around 12 miles (round trip).

With that said, this is a very good that I very much enjoyed and look forward to completing again.

Individuals looking for a good trail should definitely consider this one.

Metro Connector Trail

It's... ok

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

The trail is pretty smooth (barring the odd bump) and slightly hilly on occasion, but since there isn't anything to see here, use it only as link between M-5 & I-275.

West Bloomfield Trail

On my doorstep

October, 2024 by lrcb40

A nice slow roll with grades which are easy. Nice views of some $$$ houses! Well protected from wind much of the way. Didn’t get to Haggerty Rd from Keego, but that’s another day!

Paint Creek Trail (MI)

October, 2024 by hfoland_tl
