Aloha All, Mosk and I headed out this morning for one of our standard Saturday Maui mountain bike rides. We left from our Maui bike shop in the heart of Lahaina at 7am. The morning air was crisp, a bone chilling 70 degrees. We headed up the old cane haul road above...

I know this is late, however I want to say a little something about the Cycle to the Sun bike race on Maui, Hawaii. It’s a 36 mile, 10k feet climb from Paia to the summit of Haleakala Crater. It is an awesome Maui bike ride. It starts at about 6am in Paia, right off...

Excellent West Maui Bike ride on Saturday November 17th. Mosk and I headed up to the pineforest for a sweet early morning adventure. The weather was perfect and so was the dirt. It is kind of jaunt on the Santa Cruz nomads, but its worth it. Cant wait to ride my new...

Well it’s pretty clear for most people this is impossible. But for the rare few it is surely fun, and a flight of the spirit. We can all be inspired by people like this who take the time and make the effort to make themselves the best athletes in the world. Maybe you...

We haven’t seen this previously but some people are bringing Maui up to speed with e-bikes. The following video appears to be in Ulupalakua or at the Makawao Forest Reserve Trail. Watch as this rider makes easy work of some very steep hills with a bike that doesn’t...

Maybe you’ve seen our page for the West Maui Loop Trail and are wondering just how fantastic this ride can be. Well wonder no more as youtube user bikeologist shows us in stunning video from 2009 what a fantastic ride this is. The bikeologist reminds us that “This...

The Skyline trail is so popular and with good reason. It starts at the top of the world on Maui’s sleeping giant and second largest mountain in the world, Haleakala! Enjoy a 5 minute Skyline trail tour with great music from surfgirl1977. And when your done check out...

Youtube user 253MTB has a lot of great action videos and this one shows the trail from the start at the Visitors center on Haleakala’s summit. If you go on this trail be warned… lava rock cinder hurts when you fall into it. I rode this trail in the 90′s… all the way...

While surfing youtube for great bike rides on Maui, I found this recent video by Paul Linnerud of his Keokea to Kenaio and some of the way back to Tedeschi tour. Paul rides hard and passes lots of other bikers. His helmet cam takes a great shot of the ride and he is a...

Lots of people each year try to ride to the top of Haleakala. It is the steepest paved ascent to 10,000 feet in the world. This is a great idea if you are in fantastic shape like user running page in the video below and also know what you are doing. Even expert riders...

From youtube user radiodinner comes a closer look at the Fuji Aero SST 3.0. This ride will delight you, it is top of the line in performance and comfort. But don’t let the video placate you… come ride one now or reserve it for your vacation here on Maui!

This bike rider in a South African bike race was seemingly attacked by a Hartebeest buck… Seems like a direct hit for sure. Whether the bikers were somehow bothering the animal or the herd is unknown but you can rest assured this cannot happen when you bike any of the...

Enjoy a leisurely ride down or a grueling climb to the top or both if your up for it but be very careful. The road up Haleakala is the steepest road ascent in the world to 10,000 feet and climbing it to swiftly can result in serious altitude sickness if you aren’t...

Two of the best possible rides aren’t with a road bike or mountain bike at all. Indeed, if you just want to chill, maybe even beating automobile traffic and enjoy a lazy day in the sultry summer sun of Maui try a beach cruiser for a day in Lahaina or Kihei. You can...

You can ride form Kihei to La Perouse or from Lahaina if you are experienced. It is a beautiful ride no matter how far you come. If you do start from Lahaina, you’ll cross the Pali. Be sure to stop at a lookout or two, the vistas are wide and the air is fresh, often...

Someone may refer you to the destination Out Grandma’s Way or to Ulupalakua as a great biking destination while your on Maui. Grandma’s Coffee house is indeed an excellent destination and many road bikers stop there before turning around or going farther out toward...

Some people go fast and zoom round the place. Some like to go slow over bumps at snail pace. Some like to go slower and ride on smooth road. Some like the sand and the grass and the toads. Whatever you like, however you ride We’ve got the bike And we keep it with...

Whats up everyone. We did the west maui loop last Saturday. Took us about 3:30. It was a great day. Very little wind and lots of sunshine. We went with a small group of people. Pony and I rode pretty strong. Here are some pics and a video.

Wow cold this morning on my Maui bike ride. One thing I really like about West Maui is that I can ride all year around. Even when I consider it cold its only about 70 degrees. Its not a very far bike ride to the tunnel from my house in Puamana in Lahaina but its a...

Anyone out there interested in going on organized Maui road bike rides on the weekends. I want to start a forum where people can get together and communicate and hook up for bike rides. Any comments? Check out this vid of the West Maui Loop on Youtube.

On a gorgeous Maui day on the skyline Ridge trail, you can see Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa jutting up through the clouds well over 100 miles away across the deep blue Pacific ocean on the big island of Hawaii. This trail is all about fantastic views. On the drive up you...
