At MMC we take pride in providing what we feel is necessary for a fun and safe ride down Haleakala. As the pioneer of the downhill bike ride we are knowledgeable of the roads, the people, the regulations, especially since we assisted in creating this industry and making it what it is today. We know the roads like the backs of our hands and can instruct you how to properly handle the roads and your surroundings. You must incorporate the knowledge of cycling within this environment, and that we are masters of. We even go a step further to ensure you feel comfortable, we stay on the mountain with you to make sure all turns are made, it can get tricky, and don't want anyone lost. This is also helpful if an incident was to arise. Last but not least we are the only bike tour company that offers free parking.
