A Quick Congrats
The staff at Hilo Bike Hub would like to congratulate all of those who competed at the Honu Half Ironman in May, over in Waikoloa. A quick shout out to Casey Francis, Ben Pappas, Lee Collins, Neil Sampson, Billy Weaver, Joe Wedeman, Ty Blechta and Tim Marr for representing East Hawaii and making us all very proud. A quick mention to Morgan Bahurinsky for her first attempt at the half ironman distance – its all apart of the learning experience! We look forward to many more exceptional results from all of you in the future.

Flat Fix 101

We will be offering a quick course on how to change flat tires on Saturday August 2nd at 11am. The class will offer an overview on how to properly take your front and back wheels off, removing the tire and tube, and correctly put them back on. This groundwork is crucial for your overall knowledge and safety of your bicycle. Classes are limited in size so hurry and reserve a slot for our August class. Bring 3 levers, a spare tube and either a hand or floor pump. Classes are $10. To sign up call: (808) 961 - 4452 or email: hilobike@gmail.com
