The Hana Highway - Maui - Jan 2012
« on: January 27, 2012, 08:49:21 PM »
Rented a Harley (that's all they had) last week during a day off from "work" in Maui last week.  The road is one of the best to ride in the entire world.   59 bridges, 46 of which are only one-lane bridges, approximately 620 curves through tropical rainforest.  Going back there for sure.

Man, I haven't been to Hana in YEARS!  Cool pics.
Once I had a Collie pup. Dug a hole and covered him up. Now I sit there by the hour. Waiting for a Collie-flower.

 :2thumbup: Nice shots, did that exact same ride on a Road King about 6 or 7 years ago and need to again.  I love how everyone warns you how "dangerous" the road is and how you cannot go all the way around the island because it is so bad.  Pffttt  - it was cake even on that pig.

nope-did not see the dreaded dude.  I did meet a super-cute dreaded chick at the gas station in Hana (only 5$ a gallon).
