Biking

[wontun]

Alright folks

ABCs, BBCs, CBCs or what not are coming from right, left and centre trying to meetup but nothing arranged that I know of.

How about a biking day out along the Shing Mun river in the NT and I'll show you to a well hidden "paradise" beach along the way? I cycle all the time so if you wish to join me let's say 5th January 2008, weather permitting, I think it should be good. Let me know folks.

would love to go, love biking! where is that beach located?

It's at the end of the Shing Mun river. Beautiful place and totally deserted for some reason, but it's a hotspot for TV dramas since not a lot of people know about it.

ah i see, normally i just go straight through to tai mei tuk...

Interesting. I have to work on the 5th, or I'd totally be down. :|

Does anyone know what's the closest MTR station and / or how to get there? Thanks

The Ma On Shan MTR line runs alongside Shing Mun River so you could get off anyone of those stops and you're practically there. But I would suggest getting off at Tai Wai for cheap bike rental.

this sounds great fun! unfortunately i'll be out of town then. would really love to join next time!

Had several requests to change the date which also might fit in with other's schedules aswell, so new date for our biking meetup to paradise beach will be 19th January 2008. This day seems to be better for some folk. Hopefully won't be as cold then. Let me know if you can make it and I'll let you in on the details when the time comes.

hey, i'm keen to join! But i do not own a bike in HK... is there a place to rent a bike at the meeting place, or do i have to rent a bike elsewhere and transport it to the meeting place?
