Learn your metric conversions Paul Sherwen

I Tivo'ed the Tour de Suisse and was watching it today when I heard Paul Sherwen comment on how the tires the pros use are "probably not much wider than an inch."

Now come on. How can a former Pro cyclist that reports on the subject, one who grew up in England where they use standard measurement system mind you, not know the conversion.

25.4mm per inch Paul. That means both 23c and 25c tires are less than an inch wide.

Sorry, but I gotta rant on this one. He has too sweet of a job for me to not give him crap about that one. Any chance of him actually seeing this?
