Maui Freshly Paved and Curvy

Freshly paved

While here, posted about the Maui interestingness and this was like finding the Yellow Brick Road with fresh pavement on the Kahekilli Hwy to the Waihee Valley. Kahekilli is part of the annual Boxing Day ride from South Maui Bicycles, and much of the road was previously rough like pave.

There are still some nasty sections, sectors if you will, that’ll test your tires. Once the road got smooth, I was so into it kept riding the curves, and one-lane roads to the Banana Stand on the North side.

Curvy Road Ahead

The riding just keeps getting better in Maui with new pavement, shoulders, and even bike lanes. The curves are like castles in Italy, so many of them they sort of blur together, but an indelible part of the experience.

Here’s a map of the Boxing Day ride and Andrew’s Strava from 2012. The South Maui shop is also hosting a ride on the same route this New Years.

And a short video from Vine of the one-lane road.
