which setting

[punkypossum]

MPH - and that's despite growing up in a kmh country!

Statute miles.

I once changed to km for Audax. Kept getting confused.

Talking about confused, in Ireland the roadsigns are in miles OR km, but they don't tell you which

 

[asterix]

was wondering do you set your computer mph or kph

My 3 cycle computers were all set to km/h before their batteries ran out, one by one. Now I don't bother with them as I know what speed I am likely to do, etc. and have more space on my bars for another gadget (GPS?).

My max downhill was 83 km/h
My quickest recorded avg was 27 km/h over 3000 km (including stopping for reds, etc)

Km/h

MPH is just for old farts...

KM/h is for slow farts

 

[alecstilleyedye]

kph. basically it was all my first ever computer could work with and, as it allowed me to compare my speed with the speeds quoted for the pros in the tour, i was happy. i've never felt the need to change to mph, even though i can.

KM/h is for slow farts

Slow fart here, living in km/h Canaduh

MPH

 

[BIGSESAL]

kPH

That way calulations are easier. I like to do calculations while I cycle. Is that sad?

eg 40km/h = 40,000 m/hour = 666.7 m/min =11.1 m/second

Then I will will see how long it would take me to do 100m.

eg 110/11.1 = 9.0 seconds.

Then I will be happy because I can say that I am faster than Usain Bolt. Yeh I must be sad.

No Johnny foreigner measurements here please, just solid, dependable Imperial for me.

 

[Neilwoo123]

MPH! This is the United Kingdom not Europe.

 

[Dinger]

mph here too, I struggle to understand kph and as everything is in miles so that seems to sink in better. I did try kph but when you speak to someone about a ride and the distances involved they always convert it into mph so I will just stick with that.

Well said that man

 

[mondobongo]
