I see those cycles parked there, surely to goodness people were not stupid enough to ride cycles with cars slipping about?

I haven't cycled this week because of the conditions but I have seen some cyclists out and about. Getting around on a bike must be 'interesting' I suppose.

I don't know about interesting, stupid come to mind. Cars are slipping and bikes are not exactly fourwheel drive, so what if one falls off and into the path of a car which slips when breaking - don't answer that, sheesh.

What ever happened to your sense of adventure, where is the British stiff upper lip, we are invincible attitude. I am tempted to tell you all how in my youth I would cycle for miles in all weathers to get work, how I would then sit all day with wet soggy trousers until it was time to cycle home again, did I worry about about a few sliding cars or the 12 inch's of snow fall that that could leave me stranded for weeks in deepest Twickenham, However I won't tell that story now instead Ill make a nice cup of Hot chocolate and turn up the heating. ( CHEERS)

and I love that picture Picqero. That's one of those you don't know whether you want to walk into it, or wait and see who walks out.

This street , in Sha Tau Kok , which is in the border area, is half in China and half in Hong Kong. It makes for rather strange shopping trips, you have to have a pass to go into the area anyway.The line down the middle shows the crossing point.
