Hi,
I'm heading to HK for a few months but not taking my bike due mainly to storing it in a small apartment.
Has anyone been riding over there or know of a good place to hire a bike or if there is any good trails?

Cheers

Hittin Thredders for the holidays and am absolutely shittin myself n petrified about my rig and skill level...
Saw some tubes and it looks pretty hectic.

Far from being a DH rider, I would say we're XC intermediate riders at best.
Will we survive on XC rigs with 5 inches of travel?? Or are we better off rentin out the leadweights?

Is there flowy downhill rides to do?

Also we're thinking about hitting up Sparrow Hill on the way through.
Anything else worth the look that is within our route??

I am heading down to tassie for the Christmas break for a few weeks and was planning on taking the bike as i know that they have heaps of national park down there. Does anybody know of any good areas to go riding? i am looking at doing mostly single trail xc stuff i will save the downhill until i get home and wont be so annoyed at silly injuries.

well it's getting to that time of the year when the Christmas/NY road trip needs to get sorted. The past 2 years we have taken the bikes through Victoria, but this year we were thinking of heading to Sth Australia to try out the riding there and maybe stop in at Mt Buller on the way back.
I've searched the site and can't find any comments from people who have actually ridden in SA. I have found a great mtb site http://www.adelaidemtbtrails.com/ to give us some idea of the riding.
