put down the darn beer so you have 2 hands to steer that bike with!!!
If you're going to learn it, better learn it right - the Imperial Gallon is 20% larger than the US Gallon, because the US Fluid Ounce is larger than the Imperial Fluid Ounce (the US used the French wine ounce, while the Imperial is based on the British beer ounce).FarmerChick said:bartholomewroberts said:FarmerChick said:many countries pay more at the pumps
Austrailia someone posted was like $6 per gallon
Canada is in the $5s per gallon
moaning and groaning, as much as I do it too, doesn't help
You also have to remember that the Canuck gallon is 25% larger than the US gallon... Ie .. ours is 160 fl ounces... the US is 128 fl ounces. When that difference in volume is taken into account, the price difference is not all that far apart.
