May 9	comment	Bike type suggestion for packed limestone trails Some pictures of the trail would help. I've ridden packed/crushed limestone trails for years on tires from 23mm slicks to 2.1" MTB with suspension and frankly it was always fine except for the odd trail made more of big chunky bits which is only really good for walking.
May 9	comment	Dictionary of regional vocabulary differences (US vs UK) There's a very important signage difference: in the UK they use an open red circle with a bicycle in to indicate "no cycling" (signservicesuk.com/online/p/1860/1/…) while in the US it would always have a slash through. This may make the cyclist from the US riding in the UK go where it is not allowed. Further, in the UK a triangular version of the same sign serves as a caution to motorists, not to cyclists, and means "cycling is allowed here." It is highly confusing for American cyclists in the UK at first!
