Not are there no bike paths, but there are no bike lanes either. But I do see people on bikes, in hilo. Lot's of moped/bikes in Kona. I wish they would make some sidewalks and or bike paths, but the state doesn't plan for them. Frankly, your lucky to drive down a paved road.
That being said, I say sadly, that this state is the worst I've seen for bikes and I've been to plenty of states. Maybe the other islands are better with planning bike lanes and paths but the big island has a LONG WAY to go. I knew this before hand, not really one to like riding on streets with the traffic and steep hills, I opted to sell my recumbent when I moved here. Lot's of trade off's here. Take up swimming and hiking for your bike.
