Quote | Reply
Lesson 1:

Saunier Duval makes hot water heaters among other things.

In French, a hot water heater is called une chaudiere.

Une 'chaudiere' is also cycling slang for a rider who is a big time doper.

Looks like it was to hot to handle, or maybe they are tired to play hot potatoes: Saunier Duval retires from sponsoring cycling teams.
