Excuse to research and maybe buy fun stuffs : )
You can do this PunaFolks, the roads are smooth. Shoulders wide, hills are gradual and for the most part only one way. Up or down,,, so think possibly / positively ,,, ½ your ride nearly free .. You know na .. your drive.
No need to spend thousands ( or even hundreds ) on the bike. Don't buy into having to have x latest bla bla blings either.. So many perfect bikes on Craigslist from Hilo > Kau sellers. Yes, right here. Awesome.
#1, Just get your position ( seat height and friendly bars ) on the bike comfortable + low gearing and build up to longer trips. That's the Genesis to keeping going.
The two main, local Craigslist Seller Folks are all in to help you here. If you not sure, just ask.
Have Fenders nice but no necesito. Poncho / junky rain suit fine + hat under the hood and all good.
Ignore all the hype, just go your speed. Use it or lose it di ba ? Next thing you know, now you have nice routine. Rain or shine. Days getting longer too so plenty time.
Instead of fully loaded car trips, maybe, break it down to smaller and nice reason / excuse / alibi ? to ride.
That said take your time, enjoy the ride.
God Bless.
