Our longest bike ride so far

Since Betsy has only a 2-hr workday on Fridays, we decided to spend one lovely Friday doing some bike riding around the island. So we charted a course we'd been considering for a while, over to the Pacific (east) coast of the island, then south along the coast & back across the steep ridges that run north & south. We included a lunch stop at a buffet that we'd read good things about (lots of sushi!). The route we followed is available if you CLICK HERE.

Basically, it was a big loop along roads we'd driven several times but never ridden. Only 3 of our 4 total tires survived in an "able to contain air" state. But Josh didn't let a flat front tire keep him from riding his free bike (found on the side of the road beside other large trash items on "large trash items" day) without an inflated front tire (the tube has since been replaced & feels just as good, which isn't that good, as it ever did). It was a good workout & great fun besides! And we even remembered to snap a few photos!
