I've been commuting in Hong Kong for close to two years. I do it with a higher end foldable bike. This works out great as full framed bikes are no longer allowed to be brought onto any of the public transport here. But a foldable......thats another story. So my two year experiment has actually gone very well and I've had up to now no close calls on the road. Just wondering if there is anyone else crazy or stupid enough to take up commuting in Hong Kong. I feel so alone. ;).

I was in Hong Kong last month - and there is NO WAY you would catch me on a bike there, at least not on the island anyway. The one advantage you do have though is hill training!! But then again, I wouldn't fancy cycling from the harbour up to the peak!
