my new ride

It has been a little difficult to get around without a bike or car.  I almost bought one in Hilo, but they were asking $250 for a rusty bike that didn't even look that good.  So i declined.  

I am glad that i did.  I made a couple calls and found the cycle station a couple miles from the Honokohau harbor.  This is the first bike that i tried and damn!  it fits really well.  and It was only $225.  with all the bells, but not whistle.  It made getting back to the marina after a shopping run to home depot a breeze!  The trick will be finding a place to store it while we are doing crossings.

I still have my eye on a strida bike. (www.strida.com)  It would be a lot easier to put in the dingy and store.
