LAND BICYCLING All bases and military recreation areas have designated bicycle lanes and/or trails. Since speed limits are so rigorously enforced, your military bases are very safe riding environments. Off base, you’ll find a bevy of bike lanes, paths and trails–especially on Oahu’s Leeward Coast. Hawaii law (HRS 291C-150) requires that all bicyclists younger than 16 years of age wear a helmet. Be sure to register your bicycle at any Satellite City Hall. You’ll find details in this guide’s “Transportation” section.
