The Honolulu Century Ride
September 28, 2008

The Honolulu Century Ride (HCR) - is Hawaii's oldest and largest cycling event. This ride, not a race, was first established in 1981 and includes ages from 8-80 years old. The ride begins and ends at Kapiolani Park; and riders follow Oahu's eastern and windward shores toward their destination. Participants have the choice of riding 20, 25, 40, 50, 75 or 100 miles at their own pace. Finish area includes live entertainment, food, and booths. Join thousands of people on their bike for this premier event!

The purpose of the HCR is threefold: to encourage those who are fit to continue their fitness programs, and, to give a good reason for those who want to become fit to get started; to help lots of people become more aware of the environmental benefits of bicycling; and to join with family and friends in a healthful, joyful activity. This event serves a vital importance in HBL's ongoing activities.
The number of riders this year is projected at 4,000.
