That is quite an achievement.

But how did you get across the water?

I cycled to Antwerp once.

You inflate the tires till they're man-high.

Either that or get a monster of a ramp.

One hears of floating things that could perhaps, rest a weary cyclist for a spell.

Or else he knew where the steps were.

So did you have to ride in circles around the ferry? Or did you do the whole one foot on the floor, master of all that you survey thing all the way across instead?

I've lost "the touch" completely.

Was this the charity-thing you were cycling for? Sorry that I couldn't spare a dime for ya' to make the world more bearable, but I'm kind of below minimum-wage...

Ya' know what? If we ever meet in person I'll buy ya' a pint. I don't ussually advocate drinking, but you've earned one.

How many english miles is it twixt Londun' and Paris btw? I'll convert it to the metric-system later.

Well done, Paul.

Post by **Best First** » Thu May 31, 2007 7:59 am

300 miles or thereabouts.

Predabot · Post by **Predabot** » Thu May 31, 2007 9:06 am

Dear lord... 48 metric miles... Hmm, but is that counting the wet stuff? A good workout none the less, natch.

48, Paul said 300 ?

300 is an ace film.

not including sea.

Is there even such a thing as a metric mile?

I've heard of a metric tonne, which differs from a ton by being an exact 1000 kilogrammes.

But a metric mile? Surely the kilometre holds that metric unit of distance.

Anyway, it would appear, from brief calculation, that Predabot's metric mile is approx. 6 statute miles, which would be approx. 5 nautical miles, or approx. 9 kilometres.

I could move on into more obscure units, such as leagues, but this joke is already wearing thin.
