1 - What is average height of a adult male in the UK ?
I believe it's something like 5 foot 9 inches

2 - How much do you weigh ?
A little over ten stone

3 - What is the fastest you have ever driven on a UK road ?
180mph Isle of Man (unrestricted on the mountain roads)

4 - What's the coldest weather you've ever experienced ?
probably around -5 to -10C in either Iceland, or the North Yorkshire moors in winter. More with windchill.

Didn't think the Isle of Man was part of the UK

5'11''
14.5 stone
151 = 4 wheels, 145 = 2 wheels.
-15C top of Pen-Y-Fan, less if including wind chill.

Why do you ask?

Just done a Google on average height and it says 5'10" but that is according to the Daily Mail.

Isle of Man head of State is the Queen, it's a British Crown Dependency. The United Kingdom is responsible for the island's defence, they have the right to govern over local matters. Whilst strictly speaking not part of the UK, it's commonly accepted as part (ish) or may do for this question?

Whilst I ride a bike, I'm not such an idiot to do those speeds on the Isle of Man on a bike...

Technically not part of the UK under law.
 
1. Shorter than me. (6'1")
2. More than it should be (~17 1/2 st.)
3. Erm, more than 70 but at speeds like that, eyes are far better on the road rather than watching the clocks.
4. Probably not as cold as I'll experience in March (in Iceland.)
 
Iceland in the south never gets cold, it's mostly warmed by the gulf stream so never really drops below freezing, even in the depths of winter. We went in January, 3.5 hours of, well not really day light, more grey light.

Lapland in December a few years back -25
It didn't really feel that cold TBH.
As for the light, yep pretty much none existent, for the 3 odd hours that there was "some" :(
 
On the back of the Fahrenheit / Celsius thread I was just keen to see whether people defaulted to old or new money with height / weight / velocity / temp

3. 74mph - on a Yamaha R125 - took me over half a mile at 9,000rpm to make it to 74 (without the use of a hill or the wind behind me!)
4. -2 - whilst camping out up in Nottingham during the winter, I am clever like that.
