« Circle Island Tour »
The 2006 crew, somewhere between Kipahulu and Kula. This year saw the return of Nature Boy, as well as our strongest logistical teammate ever, Ethan. Things get mo’ easy when you have a Maui resident on your team. Mahalos brah, sorry the Hana to Hanalei charter didn’t quite work out this year.
Also, we actually had a driver in 2006, a responsible one who wasn’t a girl (nothing personal, but that will never happen again due to an Asphalt Hero charter amendment). Unlike our first-year driver and Asphalt legend Mirugai, who partied until dawn, which is when, um, the race starts. We managed to find him hungover and barely mobile at Krispy Kreme minutes before the start. Amazingly, he not only rallied a few legs into the race, but kept going for the duration of the weekend.
Case-per-person-per-day folks. I don’t care what the VOR (voice-of-reason) says. It’s more fun to give beer away than have to pay five times as much at Hasegawa.
