Canada is partly metric.
Today the price of gas in B.C was $1.45 a liter.

I thought 4 1/2 litters in a gallon but this does not seem right
Anyone knows?

Yes in Europe they pay a lot more than even we do.
No wonder the women, who mostly were stay at home moms,
now have to work to help keep the car running.

I have no calculator where my figures right?

While living in Holland we used the bike all winter and yes it rains a lot to.
I love to walk in the rain or storm.
I walk more now and I know a lot of people do.
I also watch that I don't buy at Governement gas stations.

When I was there they still had the black bikes that were just laying around for all to ride.

Yes some cities had the grand idea to leave bikes everywhere for people to use and then to leave wherever.
Many people paint their bikes all colours of the rainbow in the hope no one want to steal them.

When you go to the railway station or department stores you can see hundreds of bikes.
How people can find their's is a mystery.
No one has to wear a bike helmet either (nor in China)
only when motorized they have too.

Crazy; here scate boarders are not made to wear a helmet. Go figure.

Here... Petrol is somewhere between £1.13 and £1.25 a litre

so somewhere around the £5 a gallon mark depending in which measurement used... not long the exchange rate was about $2 to the £1 soooooo. I think we pay a tad more!
