Downriver Highriders take
annual ride to Fireworks
Food Giveaway to Feed Familes
"I have never seen so many bikes before" said one onlooker. That phrase was repeated time after time as the group of approximately 400 bike riders that originated in Southwest Detroit made one of their historic rides. The Highriders have been riding together for over fifteen years. A group of approximately forty of them ride together three times a week. But for the last three years, hundreds have gathered to ride their bikes to the Detroit fireworks.
There are young kids, girls, ladies and men of all ages riding in the group. They start at the car wash on Fort Street in Southwest Detroit and pick up another group at the car wash on Jefferson in River Rouge. As they travel
down Jefferson to Fort St., they make it to Clark St. in South West Detroit, they continue downtown picking up riders along the way. They pause at Hart Plaza and then make their way to Belle Isle and then begin the journey back home.
