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!

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

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!

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!

Paint Creek Trail

August, 2024 by khamel2_tl

This is my favorite trail ever to ride! We drive to downtown Rochester and get on it by the park. A little crowded to start - bikers and walkers share - but then thins out the further you ride. It is a slight uphill in this direction to Lake Orion but then all downhill when you turn around. There is a cider mill you can stop at, little free libraries (2), and multiple benches you can rest on if needed. Surface is crushed stone and well kept up. This trail is a must ride!

Paint Creek to Polly Ann Trail Connector

I live near this trail and ride it often. Although it's purpose of connecting the Paint Creek trail and Polly Ann is awesome. It also has some cool wood railed bridges that are funny to ride or walk. Extend your ride and travel the connect trail.
