Hawaii Cycling Club is, like many things in Hawaii, about ohana (family).
It's an organization dedicated to the sharing of a common interest, cycling.
This club is not just for racers, not just for mountain biker or just roadies.
You don't need years of riding to join and you don't have to be a dedicated
fanatic of bikes. In fact this club is for all these people and more. It's
for the kids who just love the experience of getting out on a bike. It's
for the ones who just want to lose a few pounds or are recovering from an
illness or injury. It's for people who just want to be outdoors with other
like-minded people. We have members who took up cycling after quitting cigarettes.
Ones who decided they wanted to do a triathlon or a century ride before
they got too old.
We all have our own reasons for being here and we are all accepted in the club. While this may be an intangible benefit of membership it is a very real one. Some of the tangible benefits open to members and non-members alike are the opportunities to learn from our more experienced riders. This ranges from Cycling 101 for beginners to coaching for the race team. Every Saturday morning ride is a chance to ride along with some of the best and most experienced riders in the state of Hawaii. This is a chance for you to ask them how you're doing or what they feel might improve your cycling. Ask them anything, from the best way to cross a busy intersection to dropping time off your race, to what bike works best for you. We love to help people and we love it when people come to us for guidance and advice. What are the benefits of membership? Most importantly is your supporting our club. Yes we'll send you a newsletter, and let you know when the rides and races are happening. If you do wish to race, we'll support you as much as we can. We encourage new and experienced racers by supporting them in racing. We'll help them with equipment if we can and sometimes ever travel arrangements. We encourage non-racers by offering them clinics and outings, to help them enjoy cycling to it's fullest. For those members participating in our rides we have insurance to help cover your needs in case a mishap occurs. Most importantly is that by being a member, you are a member of our ohana and you are showing and supporting others in their love of cycling.
