Milford Trail

Hilly but Enjoyable

November, 2024 by clonetrooper5373

The trail is flat and smooth, with no cracks or bumps that I remember. It’s rarely straight, being full of twists and turns.

It is *very* hilly especially near the YMCA parking lot so be ready to shift gears in a jiff.

Boardwalks and small lakes help break up the scenery a bit, and road crossings are rare.

This trail hosts mountain bike trails within its boundaries that intersect with this trail, so use cation and keep your eyes peeled.

It’s a good 8+ mile journey that I would recommend traveling to visit.

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)

great trail!

October, 2024 by hfoland_tl

Flat trail with beautiful scenery. Fall colors just turning. Will definitely ride it again.

Michigan Air Line Trail

smooooth

Nice ride - part way - from Haggerty to Wixom Rd and return. Planning on riding the whole length soon

Thomas Township Trail

A great extension to the Saginaw Valley Rail Trail

September, 2024 by milkshake

Our group of 9 riders rode this trail in addition to the Saginaw Valley Rail Trail. We had a total of 25.7 miles starting in St Charles, MI to the end of the SVRT and then adding on an out and back on the Thomas Twp Trail, which connect easily to the SVRT. The Thomas Twp Trail is a beautiful, meandering trail through a tree farm, past a beautiful school and into neighborhoods in Thomas Township. The trail is in excellent condition and well signed and outstanding trail markers. Kudos to the folks in Thomas Twp who made this happen - we will be back!

Saginaw Valley Rail Trail

Biking Bunch from Linden MI loves this trail

September, 2024 by milkshake

Our group of 9 riders rode the Saginaw Valley Rail Trail today and the connecting Thomas Twp Trail. Both beautiful trails and well maintained. We highly recommend Bad River Bar & Grill in St. Charles, MI for lunch or dinner after your ride. Our service and food were very good and the owner even came over to thank us for coming in for lunch!

The trails have great signage and places for a bathroom break. It is especially beautiful this time of year with the falling leaves.

I-275 Metro Trail

Smooth pavement except about a 1/4 mile around 6.5 under an overpass. Very comfortable and easy ride. Trail ends abruptly and is hard to find the connection back to it, but otherwise a nice place to put in some miles.

Clinton River Trail - Oakland County

Avoid Pontiac

September, 2024 by robot3937

Did the trail westbound from Crookes to Sylvan lake. The first stretch is recycled gravel, which brings you to Auburn Hills where it crosses at an ice cream stand. Nice enough. But to call the next stretch a "trail" is a travesty. After a stretch on sidewalks and some crosswalks, it quickly decays in to a difficult ride past abandoned buildings on narrow cracked, broken concrete sidewalks with long-neglected growth blocking the view forward. The signs are scant but the abject poverty is painfully obvious. In front of the party store there were homeless/drug people passed out on sleeping bags in the middle of the day. After arriving in Sylvan Lake, replete with its payday loan places, I called an uber to haul me & my bike home rather than go back through the dearth of Pontiac. As one previous reviewer said, I can't believe I was naive enough to think that the city and the cycling community would have actually built and maintained a cycling trail through a city whose reputation is so dismal.

Enjoy the route from Rochester to AH, but stay away from Pontiac!

Kensington Metropark Trail

A smooth ride!

September, 2024 by lrcb40

I haven’t been here in a few years and purchased an ebike to help tackle the elevation changes (I’m 70 and haven’t ridden in a while). I was delighted to discover that my ideas were correct and that a small amount of assistance helps, but otherwise, pedaling a somewhat heavy ebike (47lbs) is fine. My Trek carbon fiber bike is 25lb and should fly. Now to recover. I ache!

Paint Creek Trail (MI)

Great trail

September, 2024 by lrcb40

I used to ride this trail back in 1996 and have returned to cycling at 70! On my new cf Trek FX4 this is a great ride. Next time, I’ll spend some time in Lake Orion and maybe get lunch at one of the bar/restaurants in Rochester!
