@SALT Kaka‘ako (or anywhere!)

5/02 (Tue), 11:45am-12:45pm Bike to Lunch  @SALT (or anywhere!)

691 Auahi St, Honolulu, HI 96813

Imagine this: “Work is dragging and you are losing focus. A ride could really spark your day right now. Good news, you can go for a lunch ride. While the rest of your coworkers wait in line for unhealthy food and eat it in windowless break rooms, you can pedal your bike with friends for a quick mid-day spark.” This is a perfect time to invite your bike-curious colleague to try bike share!

Take a lunch break! Go for a ride and grab lunch with friends. Join HBL at SALT in Kaka’ako or plan your own bike to lunch activity!
