Are you travelling the "Lung Cheung road" back home everyday?
I went to my mate hse in Kln tong few weeks ago and i feel very bumpy and noisy aswell!!
Probably the worst highway in HK!
I ride the Lung Cheung Rd also if I need to go back to office. The road is very bumpy, noisy and very bad to suspension and tyes. Because the road design is "?????" but not "??") This kind of road design is better for heavy load truck to slow down and brake as there are many truck using this road to the ports in Kwai Chung. The surface of the road is like many sharp knife cutting the type, the shape of the surface is looking like "VVVVVVVV".

Huge difference for acceleration response

For downhill, I use 3rd and 4th gear most of the time and can follow you quite good!
With few more runs, you can pass me easily i am sure

As usual, i find the actual driving quite little time - more time is chatting at breakfast etc... I prefer to drive more.... but understand people have family things to do on sundays etc/
