Additional Description: Top: Wixom bicyclists, about 1890. The call for road paving came not from carriages or the newfangled automobile, but from the popularity of the bicycle during the 1880s and 90s
Bottom: Several homes along the road corridor sheltered escaping slaves, including the Banks Dolbeer Historic Home in Walled Lake.
