Its that time of year again in Tokyo where the rain pours for a month straight w/ no end in sight, followed by searing heat and humidity until late October. By now, most of the cyclists around my neighborhood are chatting about this years Honolulu Century Ride....Last years event collected nearly 3500 entrants, of which 2000-2500 were from Japan. This yr will be my first, with some extra time passed out on the beaches of Waikiki. Are there any on this site that has attended any of the past events or plan to ride this yr? Dunno if riding around a tiny little Island in the pacific during September in a set of aero wheels would be a smart idea.... Would be great to meet up if any fellow BF members plan to attend!

PS: Judging by looking at last yrs rider pix, half were truly OCP w/ bad taste in fashion (Disco Jersey's, cargo pants, and nike sneakers).....Somebody call out the fashion brigade!!!!
