Don’t forget our Murican friends believe that the Metric system is a weird conspiracy created by the French to take over the world.
I was talking to a chap from NY last year who just couldn’t grasp how multiples of 1,10,100 made more sense than the simple Imperial system of 12 umphs make up 1 chumfs, but 16 chumfs make up 1 Queerbit and the 14 queer it’s makes up 1 dongle of length. But it 18 mimos of weight to each wadjit.
Whether this is an April Fool or not switching to metric measurements makes sense (if not for all the crap they mentioned).
Also does anyone else find all these Bike Industry April Fool things not funny? Maybe a few years agonwhen the first ones arrived but last year and this year just seems a bit too much “trying to be cool”
