How many pistons has that got then? This is Pistonheads you seem to have strayed on to from your bicyclist website?
Errrr.....?It's called "The Pie & Piston". It's, like, a place that sort of resembles an 'online pub/bar' where conversations about non-motoring stuff can take place away from precious types who want a purely "motoring" forum.
You'll probably be horrified to learn of a sub forum for 'caravanists' too. There are sub forums for all sorts in "The Pie & Piston", and all are clearly labelled for the enjoyment of those who like the subject, and to allow those who don't share the enthusiasm to avoid a particular area. So if it offends you, don't stray in and post here. I avoid the "watches" thread, because I couldn't be less interested in the subject, same for 'video games' and 'gardening' discussions. I don't object to those who are interested having these sub forums, though, despite the fact that neither of these subjects involves the release of energy from fossil fuels.
If you don't like the conversation, feel free to leave it to those who do. Live and let live, eh brother?

Stunning. I'd ride all day if the scenery looked like that.http://www.strava.com/activities/131664817
It's a brilliant riding area - quiet rural roads amongst orchards, vineyards and farmland (I saw a total of 10 cars on the first 80km of that ride). Unfortunately, I live 4 hours away so only get to ride there when on holiday

Some photos from my ride out on Friday...
A pretty unremarkable English market town at first glance, until you realise that I was 50km from the centre of Shanghai.
'Thames Town' is a housing development just outside SH, giving China a little piece of Blighty. I have to say, it was awesome to get a feeling of being at home somehow!
Around Thames Town there are statues of famous and influential Brits from different times in British history.
Note two of my favourites are pictured below: Sir Winston Churchill, and of course Harry Potter...
Its things like this that make China such an entertaining place to live...

The Shanghai photos are brilliant, can't beat some of the random spots in China.
I did the York Solar Cycle ride today, a very pleasant ride indeed.
First shot is the Sun, second one had to be done... resting my bike on Uranus!
