About 13 miles.

Parked in Waikiki and visited Island Triathlon and Bike and then cycled over to the Bike Factory then back to the car via Ala Moana Park and a quick rounding of Diamond Head.

About 15 miles.

Tourists hassling the turtles. :)

Quick break while pedalling up the hilll

Hard to see, but all the trees were bent over from the continuous wind at the top of the ridge. The river at Waimea Bay.  Currently not making it to the ocean.
This was my first ride on my new Brooks B17 saddle.  These are notorious for needing a break-in period.  When I was looking at it before putting it on the bike, it seemed very, very hard.  You can knock on it and it sounds like wood.  The surprising thing (to me) was how slippery it was.  I didn't see any comments on line about how easy it is to slide around on this thing.  So, back to stiffness: once it's on the bike, and I rode around on it, I realized it's got a good amount of flex.  It does absorb some, so even though it's stiff, it's not like riding on a plank.  At this point, it's not horrible to ride, I still got sore, but not really any more sore than I usually do.  I'll keep at it and see if it becomes my forever saddle (like it apparently is for many cyclists). Here's a shot comparing the rail lengths of my old saddle and the B17.  I saw some posts about how it may be necessary to get a seatpost with some setback in order to get the saddle position right.  I just put it back as far as it would go on my seatpost and it seems ok.

I received my complementary copy of this new book.  A photo of mine from a Hawaiian Amateur Skimboard League competition at Sandy Beach is included.

I submitted this map to google requesting that they add this section of bike path to the bicycle layer of google maps.

About 18 miles.  My gps logger app stopped in the middle so I had to draw the last bit by hand.  hmm...
