We had a great time. This ride was special to us because it marked the pinnacle of a goal we’ve been pursuing for the past 7 years: to bike 50 miles in each of the 50 states. We saved Hawaii 5-0 for our final state, and wanted the last half of our 50 miles in Hawaii to be special. Downhill was a bonus! (We probably should have done the sunrise tour, but we’re not all that good at being early risers.)
Our guide did a fantastic job of telling us lots of interesting details about the mountain and about Hawaii. He also did a very good job of emphasizing the route we would re-trace down the mountain.
We knew we wanted to do a self paced ride and I had considered another company whose name shall remain unmentioned. As we were biking down the mountain, I saw two people who were on bikes from that other company, paused at an intersection, consulting a map and wondering which way to go. We all sped by because our guide had been very specific and emphatic about the route.
I was glad to have chosen Maui Sunriders! You made our ride a great way to finish off our 50-50 goal on our bucket list. Thanks for a great time.
