Marge Freeman, one of Kauai Path's orginal visionaries, passed away on March 3, 2023.
Her family has thoughtfully requested that in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Marge's favored community service organizations.
Kauai Path is an educational 501 (c) 3 non-profit working to expand walking and bicycling paths for the benefit of all on Kauai.
The team that coordinates free monthly Bikes on Rice rides offer tips in this short video

"Absolutely loved the video of the path and will share it with my family and friends both here and on the mainland. Bill and I have been walking segments of it to help him recover from his lung procedure, and I hope he learns to love walking and becomes addicted to the scenery. He's not a natural exerciser, so maybe the beauty of the path and the friendliness of fellow users will hook him.
Mahalo for your commitment to safer bicycling!
On the morning of January 11, 2018, in Hanamaulu, Kauai, twelve-year-old Arayza Sabay was struck by a motor vehicle as
she was walking to her bus stop to go to school. Arayza recovered consciousness at Queens Hospital on Oahu with
brain injuries and a fractured jaw.
She still has vision impairment as a result of the injuries, but has mostly recovered from the physical trauma.
Arayza’s case was covered by local media and drew concerned citizens’ attention from around Kauai.
Kauai is blessed with mild weather year round, and there are many opportunities to travel through the coastal and inland sections of our beautiful island home by bicycle.
