What's your favorite place in Southeast Michigan to train?

Postby jared » Thu Aug 20, 2009 10:09 am

What's your favorite place to train in Metro-Detroit? I'm a pretty big fan of Kensington metro park for training. I like the hills, easy place to park, and that there's a lot of people that train out there. I also like that it's easy to leave the park for long rides that still have some hills.

Leaving right from where I live my favorite place to train is Belle Isle. I have a straight shot down Lafayette right to the Island. Check out my review on cycling and running at Belle Isle.

If you're really ambitious, feel free to write a review on a Southeast Michigan training place!

I like Island Lake the best. You can swim in Trout lake and then ride all you want, then run after as well. It's really safe even in the middle of summer. I am a bit scared of the roads in Michigan. I do some road rides but not too many.

I just found out today about the path that leads to Kensington so I am going to try that next weekend.
