Hey Phil,nurgles said:Hi boomer.
No youre not the only "fool" there's lots of us ride the Tai Po Road.I live near Tuen Mun so went TST ,Kowloon Tong(for the show) Shek Kip Mei,Lai Chi Kok and over Castle Peak Road to Kwai Chung and Tsuen Wan....its the only way and have done it loads of times.I commute by bike everyday but admittedly Im in the NT but I had a friend who went from Pokfulam to Hung Hom everyday.
Its all possible.See you on the massride sometime

Thanks for this thread. The way that the trucks and buses have been close passing me and tooting I was thinking that riding roads like Castle Peak and Tai Po was illegal! I know that there are no signs banning bikes but I have found it very easy to break the unwritten HK laws that apply to cyclists.
I have already been kicked off an empty MTR at 6 am on a Sunday for daring to take my bike on this precious mode of transport. This was nowhere near any of the busy stations either! Looking at your route. Does this mean that you can ride on Ching Cheung? Perhaps we better trade emails so I can get the unofficial tips!
See you.
