Hi all.

I'm off to HK on an unscheduled trip on Friday, and will be in town for just 4 days. I grew up there so know the island well but haven't been back in 5 years.

I'd really love to get hold of a bike for a days riding but haven't been able to find anything decent online. I'm looking for a road bike as it's pretty hilly out that way.

Would anyone have any suggestions? Either for a hire, or if I'm very lucky, a loan from a friendly local? I'd be very happy to compensate however appropriate of course!

I ride a 54cm frame.

Thanks very much LFGSS.

James.

Thanks RJBHurst. Hadn't heard of Spinlister. The only bikes listed for HK are a small wheel folder or a Mash with front trispoke! Will keep looking but could go for the folder if nothing else turns up.

Mands - I did UTFS and look at other HK threads but no info on road bikes or rentals. Thanks anyway.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
