Lanai, Hawaii - Munro Trail & Kaunolu (4 August 2010)

Lanai is amazing, it is owned by a single person (David Murdock), population around 3,000 and not a single traffic light on the island. The trails are mainly 4WD dirt roads, not technical but flowy in the down slope with some loose sand and rough lava rocks.

Started at 9.30am from the resort at Koele to Munro Trail, mainly uphill with some stunning views and rewarded at the end with a fast and smooth down hill section to Manele Bay. Had lunch for an hour and headed to Kaunolu, all downhill and fast. But the climb back up was tough.

Ended back at Koele at 4.30pm, total ride distance around 40 km.
