Going for a conference. Can't ride, but would be nice to pick up a jersey or other souvenir.

Flying Ball has jerseys with their name available for purchase. The other store I wanted to visit was Bull Bike. Only made it Flying Ball though.

Why does Lance always seem to crop up when you least expect it?

I was just in HK for about a week on vacation and ended up checking out many many bike shops. You can check out the discussion here....

HK is an amazing city, and I try to go at least once every couple of months.

AWESOME String; I just printed it for my folder. Yeah, I love HK! My first trip was 1970 or 72. Get back at least once a decade. Last trip was 2010. Can't wait.

I did get a jersey from a shop in 1983. Probably Wing's; the place was packed floor to ceiling.

While onboard USS Midway, homeported in Japan, ship went to HK many times...so I've been there about a dozen..1980-1984..once went with another guy, took bikes ashore, ride around HK looking for bike shops..thought we saw one..saw 'tubes', turned out to be plumbing supply..never did find a bike shop BUT ferry to Kowloon, then rode to the New Territories on bikes..great trip..Taxi back tho..

Really loved HK..great liberty..
