In the cycling world, there is a lot of cross-over between imperial (miles) and metric (kilometres) measurements. In the UK we are used to measuring road races and time trials in miles, and have a feel for what constitutes a slow or a fast speed - in miles per hour (MPH). However, all professional competition is reported in metric units, with speed measured as kilometres per hour (KMH). So, here are some useful metric/imperial conversions for cyclists:
