Hello,
I'm participating in a sustainability bicycle tour on the big island from december 15-22 starting in Hilo and ending in Kona via the southern route. We will be visiting farms all along the way, which is of great interest to me as we have a nursery/farm in Ohio.  I'm hoping to come home refreshed and with some new ideas to put into action here in Ohio.  The tour ends in Kona and I am tentatively planning on riding my bike back to Hilo via the northern route although I have heard that throwing my bike on the bus is a possibility.  Any route suggestions, places to visit, and not to be missed sights would be greatly appreciated.  I have from the 22 to the 28th to get back to Hilo. If any other Bike Friday owners would care to get in some cycling it would be fantastic to share the experience.   Anne Kluznik(pedaling a purple air glide)
