Description

South Island Road Cycling is a forum for Road Cyclists in Hong Kong. Morning rides on the empty streets of HK Island before most people would even think of getting out of bed (& we are glad that they don't!) are what we do best.

Scheduled rides (Tues, Weds & Thurs) are posted by email usually on a Sunday evening. Sat ride plans are posted thru' the week with a summary on Friday at some point. These rides are group rides & generally will re-group at intervals; the faster rides may not but this is agreed before the ride departs.

Scheduled rides on the Island usually leave from the Sinopec gas/petrol station at Wong Nai Chung Gap (next to HK Cricket Club), but ad hoc rides can have any meeting point. Tung Chung rides usually meet at Disney Hotel car park.

Mid-week rides are early (5:45 meet) with the aim of getting us home around 7am.

Other ad hoc rides are posted by & for members of this group. When posting a ride, it is important to
1 Show up (on time)
2 Stick to the route and ride plan (no 50kph pace line if you have posted a recovery ride).

Safety is of highest importance to us. Proper lights & a helmet are a MUST. HK roads are narrow, there are plenty of potholes & manhole covers that can bring you (and others) down & you are not always as visible as you think. The only thing that WE can control is the way we behave on the road. All riders participate on their own risk.

We also run many SIR events during the year (races and socials) and actively participate in local and Asian cycling races/events.
We look forward to seeing you on the road.
