“Metro Detroit loves to ride and express itself on wheels and we want to make sure our community can do it safely,” Leona Medley, Executive Director of the Joe Louis Greenway Partnership said. “The Joe Louis Greenway is a protected trail for everyone in our community, with bike repair stations and safe routes that connect neighborhoods. This annual event brings families together for free bikes, fun, and the tools they need to ride with confidence.”
