Edward Hines Drive (18 miles) One of our favorite rides, we use it for a short evening ride during the week. (since its close to the house) Edward Hines Drive is part of the Wayne County Park System. 18 Miles of blacktop road, (not in to bad of shape for Michigan roads) winding through a lake filled wooded park. Plenty of areas to stop and picnic or whatever? Starting at Ford Road, Dearborn and ending at 7 mile rd, Northville, the park is open most days, sometimes closed due to flooding after heavy rains. (flood plain for the Rouge River) In the summer from 9am to 330pm from Outer Drive to Ann Arbor Trail the drive is closed for motored traffic. Theres not many traffic lights on the drive so you can keep your feet on the pegs for quite awhile, Considering this is in the middle of a highly populated area. Enjoy the Ride
