Southgate Events

downriver cruise 2023

While in Michigan, CSC Correspondent Rick Weaver covered the Downriver Dream Cruise, one of the largest held every year in the Metro-Detroit area. It was a fourteen hour event that took place on Fort Street (a six lane boulevard) starting in Lincoln Park, and concluded at the Southgate-Riverview boarder some five miles away. We saw a bunch of Turbo Regals and plenty of Gbody cars (our normal requirement [wishful thinkings] when attending car shows). It doesn’t happen too often that we can publish a post that ONLY has our top 4 categories of vehicles in it (hence us having to put whatever is neat at the specific venue we are at in the car show posts we make).

INTERNATIONAL MEN'S DAY CELEBRATION

Many cars and crowds will also gather the evening before for an unofficial kickoff. An official event for most of its history, each event held since 2017 has been unofficial as a result of increasing expenses incurred and lack of profits by each of the communities along the cruise route. The 2017 and 2018 events had another factor, in the form of increased traffic along Fort Street due to a prolonged partial closure of Interstate 75, which parallels Fort Street in the Downriver area, during those two years. Although I-75 had since fully reopened by the time of the 2019 edition, the event remains unofficial, and this status has allowed the 2020 edition to continue to move forward in spite of the COVID-19 pandemic. People lined the streets all along the way to watch and cheer for their friends and favorite vehicles.

Hundreds of machines on wheels ranging from off road trucks to motorcycles attended the event. Despite threats of all day rains preceded by flooding the night before the turnout was still large, and a good time was had by all. This was one of those special events.There’s sooo many muscle cars, hot rods, and classics at this gathering, we’re able to fill our quota of our personal favorites.
