Where the whole plot was hatched for the ride, so in essence, its birthplace....

It's either that or somewhere on W. Grand Blvd. Being an eastsider and not knowing the route in advance, I was kind of lost at this point.....

betterhalf and I have already decided we're going to participate in the 9th Annual Tour de Troit. It looked like such fun!

In my younger days, I did a Century ride. I loved that.

Thank you for sharing your photos.

Awesome D-Day. great job to all the fudgies who are and have been involved with this for a long time. really may be the best detroit thing out there.

If it wasn't so damn close to the marathon, I would do it next year...

Well, maybe I'll skip the marathon and come into town for this instead.

Good call....my guess is that there's a lot more alcohol consumption involved with the TdT.

what...no Dequindre Cut?

Pictures look great. Wish I could've carved out some time for that.
Make no new female acquaintances; avoid soirees; call on old friends occasionally. Write good letters to absent friends, and attend church once each Sunday.
