Honolulu POTN Meet XVII

i'll bring a sushi platter?

I haven't been to the Waikiki/Zoo/Kapiolani area in awhile...how's the parking on the weekends? And where do you guys park? Meters? Bring lots of quarters?

Sorry, I don't get out much.

Street parking, very crowded on weekend, but if go early, should find parking... forgot how much though... can find parking at the Waikiki shell, and free.

Thanks Norris. When we do the HBL Century Ride we park in that parking lot on the corner of Paki Ave and Monsarrat Ave...might do that and hike to the meet.

I'll stop by Zippys and get some chicken.

Anybody bring rice yet? I know, I'm so cheap, but it's more the fact that I'm big on rice :P.

You can bring the rice, I'll bring the utensils.

Anyone bringing chili? I can bring that local staple to every potluck.

I've been wanting to do the Century Ride. Is it hard? I wanted to do it with a fixed gear/single speed setup, but someone told me I'd probably give up when I'm going up koko head.
I don't know why, but I can't figure out how to install the rear deraileur. I feel kinda dumb.

Sounds good.

I only ride 25 miles nowadays...I mostly ride it to get the t-shirt. I went 100 miles once and once was enough. I've done the 50 a bunch of times but I feel it takes too long now and I get too tired to do anything else afterwards. The 25 mile is short so it doesn't take long and I can still do lots of stuff the rest of the day. I road the 40 mile once and it was a nice ride...but I prefer doing just the 25 mile now...much shorter and easier on my behind.

I rode the last one on a single speed mountain bike and I made it up the steep hill in Hawaii Kai (Heart Break Hill) without getting off even though I hardly rode prior to the event. I saw some guys riding fixed gear road bikes that day too.

I can help you with that if you'd like. Do you have all the necessary part? Cables, cable housing, shifters? What kind of shifter do you have? The older friction shifters or newer index shifters?

Oh, I talked to my friend with the worms and he said he would give you some. Apparently he got more not too long ago. If you're still interested I'll let him know and we can arrange a meeting or something.

I will bring some drinks and ice.

Thanks

That would be helpful, but I can roll the ice in my rolling cart and swap it to the cooler...
