We made friends with a local taxi driver, gave him some novelty glasses with a knightrider scrolling led across the top. He offered to lend us his car and have his sister for the...

    American Customary (a.k.a Freedom) Units vs Imperial vs Metric

    They put a man on the moon and invented the atom bomb with that system. How the French and English managed to build concorde is beyond me.

    I appreciate that Stefan, but you do realise as an English person Im duty bound to mock your sincerity. Its not personal, its in the owners manual. I'll stray off map and say this forum would be a lot less without you. 'Grips teacup after showing emotion'.

    I have zero interest in cars thesedays and certainly dont miss the roar of the engine or anything. Its like watching dishwashers to me, you cant possibly use a quarter of the power without losing your licence. If I could get a van with the same range, carrying capacity and fill speed I would...

    When AI gets up to speed you wont be able to trust anything, in fact we will have to retreat from the internet. Which will be a good thing. Back to dad jokes in the pub. Im ready.. Hi ready, my names Steve.

    These signs are common in the UK because roads turning into piles of rocks or medieval 4ft wide catches people, usually truck drivers out when they are following satnav. Theres even official versions, surely even the States has these.

    Ive never checked, but there are still lots of people not using google maps. But a byway is a fully legal to use road by anyone, even a semi truck or a bus.

    Its because the path is a byway, which allows all traffic, but its not suitable for anything short of a proper offroad vehicle. We had someone turn around in front of us presumably following sat nav, it usually happens if they are trying to find an alternative route and head off themselves down...

    So this sign was put up with reference to the entire rail network, either by mistake or to test the waters. It doesnt mention folding ebikes and it looks like this ban is incoming.
