Honolulu Century

Sunday morning was the Honolulu Century which is organized by the Hawaii bicycle league. There were 4000 participents this year. Marianne, Marie, Scott, Debi and and a handful of other HACC riders participated and had a good time. It was really humid so my camera decided to stop functioning soon after we started. Marianne and I kept a strong pace the whole day and finished in a little over 6 hours. Japan Airlines sponsors the ride and there are a large number of Japanese tourists who participate. Many of them seemed ill prepared as far as equipment and conditioning. We saw a few pushing their $90 huffy mountain bikes with 30 miles or more to finish. Ouch!
