There is: urc stands for "uk.rec.cycling", and "UK" stands for United Kingdom. Oh look, what's that letter I see on the end there? :-p

(And you'll notice that Chapman has, many times, replied to topics started by me to claim that they're OT for URC because they're too "motoring-related". Strangely, though, he never does the same when with does.  It's almost like really it's nothing to do with whether it's OT, it's actually about him wanting to suppress his opponents' opinions, but I can't believe that...it just doesn't sound like Chapman at all, does it?)
