A Bus-Assisted Day Ride to a Surfing Mecca

Registration has opened once again for one of the world’s greatest ride events— the Honolulu Century Ride, which takes cyclists through the island paradise of Hawaii.The Honolulu Century Ride (HCR), which attracts many repeat participants from Japan, will celebrate its 43rd edition this year. Daisaku Kawase, Communication Director of Global Ride, is now a regular rider and will be taking part for the third time. How does he enjoy Hawaii before and after the event? The answer lies on the North Shore. Within easy reach for a day trip, this popular area offers a laid-back local atmosphere quite different from Honolulu.

If you’ve made it all the way to Hawaii, it would be a shame not to explore beyond the usual spots! I highly recommend Kailua, located on Oahu’s eastern coast. It’s about 40 kilometers from Waikiki if you follow the scenic coastal route. Kailua is home to the second aid station of the HCR and holds strong ties to former President Obama. It’s also a charming beach town filled with stylish shops. Whil […]
