It really all started when someone on my monthly Instagram Ask Me Anything Q&A said "Come to Hong Kong" (they're based in HK). A friend then replied to my reply to basically say: Let's do Rapha Prestige Hong Kong!?!
If I didn't have the amount of vacation leave that I do, I might've gone for a shorter trip. But I managed to take three days off and went from 24 to 28 August 2023, a Thursday to Monday, to visit Hong Kong for the first time since way before COVID-19.
Trip Prep
Things to be settled include: (1) flight & accommodation; (2) bike transport - what kind of bag to use? how are you getting to/from the airport with that bag?; (3) physical training!; (4) any other tests, including camera mounts.
Leave a comment if you want to know more about any of the above.
Trip Plan
I arrived on Thursday morning (which is what this video covers), had a buffer day before the event day (Saturday), had another post-event day in Hong Kong, before flying home on Monday morning. Since I'd already brought my bicycle all the way overseas, I wanted to maximise the amount of cycling I got!
Stay tuned for Parts II, III, IV for the rest of this wonderful trip, in great company and with great sights/flavours.
