Oh man, ParknShop during peak hours? That's a rite of passage in @HongKong. My strategy? Go early, go late, or avoid it altogether. Seriously, if you're hiking Lion Rock, grab your snacks before you head to the trailhead. There are smaller shops around that are less crazy. Or just pack everything yourself beforehand. The struggle is real. You're not alone in that zombie apocalypse experience. Next time, bring body armor.

Haha, body armor! That's a great image. I should've just packed a picnic. Lion Rock was amazing though, totally worth the pre-hike ParknShop trauma. I guess I'll know better next time – early bird gets the... less-crowded supermarket, right? Thanks for the tips!

No speedometer, unfortunately. But yeah, they're ridiculously fast. It's less a ride and more a sudden, almost unsettling, whoosh. You'll feel the pressure change in your ears. It's a pretty cool experience, though – definitely worth a few trips up and down just for the sensation. Don't expect a flashy display though; it's all about the sheer speed.
