ParticipantA co-worker and I went out for a couple of spins while on a business trip last Friday/Saturday. Unfortunately, total washout due to some flash flooding on the last day at the end of the trip, but two days on bikes were awfully nice….and some ocean swims more than made up for the lack of bike time on the final afternoon/morning.

ParticipantDid you see BobCo85 who is grumbling about DC area weather today after two weeks in some tropical paradise.

LOL….no…and the chilly air yesterday morning when I got off the plane felt nice. But I wasn’t quite ready for this morning’s “feels like 22”. I would have gladly traded today’s ride for another long swim!

I was a bad cyclist on my trip to Hawaii as I did no cycling! I recognize both of those areas, though, the second being on Sand Island looking east toward Honolulu with Diamond Head in back, and the third being somewhere east of Diamond Head looking east toward Koko Head which is near Hanauma Bay (I hope you were able to bike to Hanauma Bay, it’s really beautiful). I was on the islands of Oahu, Hawaii, and Kauai during my trip. I did get some pics of bike racks to add to Rackspotter, though.

I may have been grumbling more about having to wake up early to go to work, but the chilly air did not help. I will say, though, that I still rode to work regardless

Me, too! I enjoy wearing my shorts as often as possible (I will sometimes wear a heavy coat to make up for the lack of warmth of my legs). I had fun, though, telling Hawaiians that, “Yeah, back home we’ve been having a really warm November. The temperature has been in the 50’s!” and seeing them almost start shivering at the thought of temperatures below 70 degrees (F).

ParticipantJust Oahu for me this trip. Rented from ITB (Island Triathalon & Bike) – great people and I couldn’t recommend them more highly if you ever decide to rent on a future trip to Oahu.
You nailed the location on both photos (Waialae Beach Park is the name of the one looking towards Koko Head). The one with the cityscape is from Punahou High School.
I did not make it to Hanauma Bay this trip, although I’ve cycled there many times (I go to Oahu for work at least once a year). Just an amazing place….although I find it hard to keep cycling because I just want to swim when I get there.
Next year I’m doing an around-Oahu ride. I’ve been wanting to for the past 2-3 years and haven’t done it yet. The first day there is so perfect for it. Pick up the bike on the night of arrival, do a short spin, then crash early…..up by 3-4am due to non-adjustment to the time change, breakfast….on the bike by 5-5:30.
Jealous of your jaunts over to Kauai and The Big Island. I do enjoy going to Oahu, but I really love the outer islands. My favorites are actually Molokai and Lanai – so peaceful and “Old Hawaii”.
And YES! It’s fun to watch Hawaiians cringe at the idea of 50s….or even low-60s!

BikeArlington/RackSpotter is well along on the way to world domination! Those will be the western-most and southern-most racks on the map.
We need to find some government science researcher (plenty of them in the DC area) who has assignments at the Antarctica bases and have him/her set up a bike rack there, photograph it and map it. They use fat bikes down there, don’t they? If not, they could.

Thanks and LOL…..no, not hiring. But when we are, I will absolutely post something. I need another cycling buddy when travelling! Sean’s not on the road with me enough.
