You can ride the roads to the Riverwalk. The City of Detroit owns the property between the Dequindre Cut and Tri-Centennial Park/Riverwalk. They are converting this land into a trail and park.

When we rode the Riverwalk a couple weeks ago, it was not obvious where they'll tie into this trail. What are they doing at the southern end to connect it to the Riverwalk Trail?

My friend asked if I had a license for by bycycle. I said "no". I replied back by saying since when did I need a license for my bike. She wasn't sure but we both laughed at the idea of needing a license for a bicycle. I did a search on the inter-net and yes it was true. Things have really gotten bad if you need to purchase a license to ride your bike for relaxation or just riding to get to work. What next paying for the air we breath...
