Sounds like all those engineering friends of Frank's.

To think these are tthe movers and shakers of the U.S.A.


Personally I'd prefer my movers and shakers to be on bikes.

Does Harper ride?


Don't know but Boris does.


I was asking SRA. He comes from a city where his previous
mayor wanted to kill cyclists on site. Though that was
probably partially a delusion from a crack dream. In Canada
we have cabinet members that seem to think that the
Flintstones was historically accurate and then there's
Steven Harper.

Who's Boris?


Boris Johnson, London's cycling mayor.
He's not perfect but he's not Red Ken and he really does ride.

OTOH, could you go in to a Swiss shop and describe your problem to the mechanic in French? My French would get me to the bathroom or a cup of espresso, but that's about it.

I'm reminded of a traveler's account I read of some
backwater where the room had a plumbing problem. Using the
local phrasebook, she managed 'devil in toilet', to great
effect.

(which makes one wonder how backward it could possibly be
without a walk in the dark to the toilet)

The French have U and non-U accents just like the British. Unless you can speak French with a 16th arondissment accent, better to shout loudly in English. The French will understand that you don't want to insult their wonderful language with your less than perfect pronunciation.

In Quebec that would translate to:

Monsieur, mon derailleur est toute ****é. So you'd be close.

I had a bike shop adjust a seat while I was riding a couple years
ago. I'm perfectly capable of doing it myself, of course, but it was
a rental bike; there was a bike shop right there, with a repair stand
outside, and a mechanic lounging in a lawn chair; and it gave me an
excuse to refill my water bottle and buy a food like substance.
