  1. Going to a wedding near here. It's been 20 years since I've been in that direct area, so I imagine
    that the amount of sand hasn't changed. Any mtb trails?

    Would I be better off bringing my road slicks and riding to the blueberry patches?

    If you mean the Shelby which is a northern suburb of Detroit, check out the MTB trails in Stoney
    Creek Metropark at 26 mile and Shelby Road. The MMBA has been working with the park to develop the
    singletrack there and there's some fun stuff there. The singletrack is mixed in with the XC ski
    trails and can be accessed from the West Branch picnic area, parking lot B.

    There's also Addison Oaks and Bald Mountain not too far away. But for the cost of a 45 minute ride
    west out on M-59, you could be at one of the better trails in Metro Detroit: Pontiac Lake. Another
    10 miles past puts you at another: Highland.

    The MMBA website www.mmba.org has info on these trails so does www.trail-edge.com.

    Let me know when you're going to be in the area if you want someone to ride with.

    Actually, the Shelby that is about 30 miles north of Muskegan.

    I'll check those two places out, anyway.

    At this point, I don't know if I'll be able to take a bike along, just planning ahead.
