I've had my garmin bike computer say 3.5 days after a 2 hour ride before. But that was after a long break from riding so it didn't have much data to go on

The slower you go, the more you see.

Since about 2006 I've been going out to Mallorca to ride at least once a year. I've stopped in the town of Pollenca at least once per trip for a coffee stop. It was only April this year I went for a wander round there on a rest day. I saw so much more and learned a hell of a lot more about the town than I ever knew before. Sure you see more riding than you do in a car, but you still miss a lot

Yeah, it's not really a game that's played much over here. I'm aware it's fairly big in US schools/colleges, and as I said the name sounds incredibly French

Yes, England were 3-2 up in the last moments of the game, the commentator says "some people are on the pitch, they think it's all over" Geoff Hurst smashes in a 4th "it is now". To be regurgitated in English football folklore until we manage to win something else of note

Vaguely interestingly some people including myself think the original quote was "some of the crowd are on the pitch" thanks to 'World in motion' but originally it was some people

It's grey. Grey kits never work, the players can't see each other on the pitch

Out of interest, I assume this is an effort to make cricket more popular in the US.

Are many Americans really that interested in the game?

up the duff, they've got a bun in the oven

The game originated from Native Americans, but the name came from a French Missionary. Certainly I would never have thought it British in origin

to be fair, I'm not entirely sure why I know that either, not many polo pitches here in Romford! I'm guessing I picked it up from TV somewhere along the line

does the wimpy is the popeye cartoons have anything to do with the wimpy burger places?

the fact it features something called a chukka made me think there might be some foreign origin to it

When you think just how much of a staple potatoes are now, what did we eat before??

I've never thought of it as British, it seemed quite Euro, I would have guessed French

Why am I reading this in the commentators voice in the 66 world cup final?

Ideally going on a bike ride then cooking a roast dinner. As it is my achilles tendon is fucked so it was get up, made breakfast, finished a 'the thick of it' marathon (thanks iplayer). Looked at the lawn, decided it can wait until next week to be mowed. Started an x-files marathon. It's possible I'm wasting my life but not being able to walk comfortably kinda rules out being exciting

As a Brit, how does one explain Timmy Mallett to the rest of the world? I just don't know where to start

Just caught up, forgot I was watching Doctor Who, that whole thing felt more like an episode of 'Black Mirror'

Different people are into different things, but again from a personal perspective, I prefer partners with some self respect...

OK, so for the most part, prospective partners of any gender are not going to like being called bitches. Maybe those who enjoy being degraded as a kink...

Personally I find I it easier to get women when I don't refer to them as bitches

Yes, but the only reason the steps are used in British cup finals is for the royals, who are a British institution. They're not so relevant to UEFA so they can choose to do what they want
