Took the family to Hawaii, after a day or two I saw only one rider in full gear.

Damn near everyone is wearing sandals, no helmet and riding sportbikes or HD's.

Does it vary by island? What state has more squids?

I've never been to Hawaii but lived in South East Asia.

The big question I have is: how fast are they riding? Are they puttering around, barely breaking 40kmh which is a speed you can reach as a cyclist?

That's very different to the squids you see on 1000cc bikes racing up and down at 70-160kmh weaving between cars.
