Are you referring to a bike chain? Standard packed length is 116 links, but that can vary by chain type.

Old unit of measurement. The length of a cricket pitch.

 

[rockmoose]

You're on the right path there Freediver, so how many links?

A cricket pitch is 22 yards isn’t it... 22 links in a chain perhaps?

edit: nope!

Hell... wasnt it 100 links in a chain? I can remember seeing an old rusty chain from eons ago. Look nothing like a transmission chain, oblong links about 8" long or so. Rods in a link? 50? That one I have no idea.

Hint: The average size Chuck, from my viewing of murican teev is about 350 pounds.
