Aloha, you’re invited to this month’s free Bikes on Rice pau hana slow ride roll this Tuesday, Oct. 8.

The ride starts at the Rotunda at Lihu‘e Civic Center on Rice Street at 4:30 p.m. This is a recurring event that happens on the second Tuesday of each month except December. These are safe, slow paced fun rides throughout the surrounding neighborhoods designed for all ages and abilities.

Bring any kine bike! The rides last about an hour so bring your own water. Organizers recommend flat repair kits and helmets (state law requires helmets for kids under 16). They’ll have trained team members throughout the course for anyone who needs assistance.

After the ride, everyone meets back at the Civic Center for snacks and talk story.
