Where To Find Family-Friendly Bike Trails In Metro Detroit (& Bike Giveaway)

Few things are as exciting as getting a new bike when you’re a kid. The joy of having an independent mode of transportation and something NEW – especially when it’s not a holiday or birthday – is hard to beat. We all need a reason to smile these days so we’re giving away a Flipside Bicycle (for a child age 2 to 12) to give you a fun reason to get out of the house.
If you want to shake up your neighborhood routine, go to a local bike trail (fully compliant with the Stay In Place order). Fresh air and open space is good for everyone’s body, mind and soul, just make sure to stay 6 feet away from any other people at the park and avoid touching signs or using playground equipment.
