Hines Drive Cruise
« on: August 19, 2015 - 12:11:01 PM »

I haven't been to it, but some of the guys at work say it's great, better then the Woodward Dream Cruise, according to them.  For those of you that are not familiar with Hines Drive, it is a roadway parks on the west side of metro Detroit.  Sort of in a valley, and sorta scenic.  So it's in a park like setting and not as congested as the Woodward Dream Cruise.  Also, they only let in the actual classic cars (25 years or older).  See link and rules below, just thought I'd pass it on.  It's this weekend on the 23rd Sunday.

What Can I Drive in the Hines Drive Cruise?

Cars: •Classics are any cars that are 25 years or older. 1988 or older.
•Hot Rods are any cars that have been modified in some way. The car must be detailed and ready for a show. Just buying a brand new GT does not get you in.
Motorcycles:  •Classics must be 25 years or older.
•Cruisers can be highway bikes, custom choppers.
•Crotch rockets and race bikes not allowed. (Remember folks, this is a car event and bike shows don't allow cars at all!)

***No Unapproved Commercial Vehicles***

Yep, supposedly they is classic cars lined up side by side the entire length of Hine Drive.  And don't forget  The Bone Yard (Ribs) is close by there on Telegraph near Warren.  See link below for the Bone Yard.  Of course Tomato Brothers / Gus's in Howell has way better Ribs, but the bone yards are to bad either, you get a lot of food for the money.

On a side note here's sort of a funny story,  I took my son when he was about 10-12 to the Telegraph cruise,  we did a lot of walking on a hot summer day,  We ended up at the bone yard for lunch, he'd never been there before.  When they brought the big plate of ribs and cottage potatoes in front of him and he started digging in, he declared "This is the 3rd or 4th best day of my entire life!"  I guess you sort of had to be there.  If he was only that easy to please now!
