Haleiwa Metric Century Ride (4/09)

Here's the route from last year's Haleiwa Metric Century Ride. This year I was out of town and wasn't able to do it, but it's one of my favorite rides. Last year, my friends Mark and Jane were visiting, so Mark decided to do the Metric Century with me.

The Metric Century starts in Haleiwa and goes along the coast past Laie, out to Swanzy Beach Park in Kaaawa, and then back. And with the morning light over the water in so many places - you get so many super-amazing views.

The Haleiwa Metric Century Ride is put on by the Hawaii Bicycling League (HBL). Their website has these very cool, point-of-view (POV) videos of what it's like to ride on streets on Oahu. Check out this video going up Monsarrat Ave:
