Model D TV: Tour de Troit

The Corktown Music Festival ain't the only day of the year that Roosevelt Park sees a ton of traffic. Tour de Troit, the annual bike event, takes over the green space one day each September with pre- and post-ride festivities and grub.

In this video from 2009, organizer Bil Lusa talks with Model D TV producer/director Tom Hendrickson.





This year's Tour de Troit is set for September 25 and will again benefit greenways efforts in Corktown and Southwest Detroit. Read more and find registration info here.
