Cycling question

[Piemaster]

Today I travelled around 10 miles on the bike.
I cycled in circles.
I did not cycle 10 miles but was on the bike cycling for the whole distance.

Any guesses how?

on a turbo

Around a sign saying 10 Miles?

If you want to work it out without reading the answer - go no further.





















You are back on your ship, and the ship/boat travelled ten miles (Knots) while you were cycling round the decks, probably the aft deck.

Well done. You've remembered the day job.

I am guessing here, but the deck is not usually that empty is it?

Do you get seasick cycling on the ocean?

Not usually so little on the deck, but the rig is more interested in the tanks full of drilling mud below it at the moment.

Never been seasick. Occasional headache but weather has to be in force 9 or 10 region for that.

Like the edit to your answer too.

Technical pedantry - isn't a knot a measure of speed, not distance? Speicher appeared to use it parethetically for distance...

I'll shut up now...

No danger of gravel rash there, but you can get some nasty splinters.

You'll know my old friend JW McLean, Piemaster:?

Friendly tip Arch, careful what you say to Speicher, she has nautical connections, used to have a tug as an avatar.

I'm not scared of Speicher.

Not much.

I have nautical connections too, my Dad crashed planes for the the Fleet Air Arm. It's a miracle the country wasn't bankrupted.

I was thinking about a change of avatar, might bring the tug back.

Now where is Arch, I am sure she was here earlier.

Perhaps I should have said sea miles per hour?



before anyone else say it

I could sea four miles

 

[snorri]

Have you taken a small libation this evening Speicher?

 

[Speicher]

I'd schooner have a large one!
