Longest ride so far

[Mo1959]

17 miles is a good distance, well done.
Why do I convert km in miles since joining this forum?

I am of an age that I much prefer the old imperial measurements. First thing I do is convert too. I can still work in pounds, shillings and pennies which is even more scary!

Mo, I'm from Italy: I was brought up metric!
Keep converting distances to miles to blend in with the cycle chat

They taught us the metric system in school, if I hadn't been involved with photography back in the film and chemistry days, I would have forgotten all of it. Still all English weights and measures over here in the States. Except for the stone.

Pat "8.05kph" doesn't quite have the ring to it as Pat "5mph" does

Metric or imperial don't bother me at all but Farenheit does ( can't even spell it properly) . Centigrade is so much easier and makes more sense.
