We did the Cycle Supreme tour yesterday. It was 40 miles of fun and exhilaration! Matt and Eric planned out everything to a T. I liked how Matt was so upbeat and encouraging, he would explain the plan of each section while Eric followed us in the van so we felt very safe while riding. I like how Matt takes lots of photos and videos of us so I didn't need to worry about that, I could just concentrate on the road and having fun. Plus it was a private tour which was great right now during COVID.
As a chef I have to say those banana muffins did live up to the hype. For lunch Matt took us to a hidden garden cafe which had a wide variety of sandwiches and salads- very tasty and healthy. The cafe even had a vegetarian sandwich for my husband who is a lifelong vegetarian.Matt provided lots of snacks in the van for breaks.
I really enjoyed the Cycle Supreme tour because we got some exercise on a few hills and flat places, unlike typical Haleakala bike tours. We also got to see different up-country towns, smell the flowers, and enjoy nature. The was one challenging hill that I tried to get up but I couldn't make it, so Eric came to get me in the van, but they were so sweet about it- no guilt. My hubby wanted the challenge and almost gave up towards the end of the hill but they literally cheered him on and he was so happy he conquered it.
I really recommend taking this tour if you want to l be smiling all day, good laughs, and beautiful scenery. Probably the best day I've had in Maui in the 10 years I've been coming!
