Thanks wag, that is complicated. We're kinda all over the place here too. We have sports events commonly measured in meters (5km run, 100 meter...

Good lord, that's about 2 booms per second every second for 9 months non-stop. Not a place anyone would want to be. I'm guessing one of the...

I assume the ground shown by the trees is "lumpy" because that partially eroded pock mark contour is what remains a century after the artillery...

Thanks bikerman. And apologies to the OP, honestly wasn't trying to hijack the thread with my blabber mouth. But after touring through europe on...

Can someone explain to me why in the UK it's mpg and not km per liter? Being long ago "metrified", I never understood that.

Your experience is not surprising to me at all. I've been on a few euro-wide trips myself, including just last year passing through France,...

You Brits are lucky to have such fabulous places to visit and ride right at your doorstep. Don't take it for "granite", I've been there a time or...

Here in the states I pay about $100 US (75 GBP) per year for basic liability insurance on my bike. That doesn't cover theft or if I wreck my bike...

The jokes, not the literalness of them. :eek:

I'm a yank and I'm signed up there (having just recently signed up to both sites after my Scrambler purchase less than a week ago). But honestly,...

Thanks for making me spray milk through my nose. :D I think when we're done with this thread, we can submit it as the second edition of Darwin's...

Biglad - YES I did see that one. What a great deal and essentially looks the same as the Zard system. That one's on my list too. But again, anyone...

Thanks. But I'm afraid I don't know my shit like these guys do...do.

This begs the question though: how many teeth does sprocket have? Sorry everyone, especially to you sprocket. I'm afraid you're just gonna have...
