We were blessed with yet another day for outdoor riding. Temps were in the mid to upper 40's F, winds were calm and sunshine was abundant. I traveled from the northern reaches of Kensington Metropark to downtown Milford. The route is colorful and varied starting out in a parkland wooded setting it meanders through open fields, woodlands, swales and navigates around a series of ponds and bodies of water with the Huron River winding through downtown Milford. There was a dam to cross over Hubbel Pond and I came across a pair of deer who gave me no mind whatsoever. I'm sure they found me more of a curosity than a threat and made no attempts to dart away.

This is the same dam that I rode over but the photo was from a ride there last year |
Downtown Milford was crowded with shoppers and somehow bicycling among Christmas decorations seemed a bit out of place. Next time I plan to spend the day checking out the shops and get a bite to eat at one of the quaint pubs. The ride was just over 10 miles and with all the sightseeing and nosing about I was on the trail for an hour and 17 min.
