Hurrying back towards Shek-O after a day at one of Hong Kong’s best beaches, Big Wave Bay, four children are struggling with tiredness and their old bicycles. On the deserted road, a car nearly crashes into them but misses and leaves one of them lying in a ditch, with an ankle sore enough to stop her riding any further. There are no other cars or no taxis in sight.
