Kerry's bike ride and visit to a shop to get it fixed

(Nice stories to balance the heaviness of Netanyahu winning and the Republicans being evil.)

Story on the bike getting fixed with some very nice comments:

As an intimidating entourage of security staffers and support vehicles trailed him, the secretary suffered a minor breakdown. Soon, Lionel Schumann, proprietor of Sam’s Bikes, was startled to look up and see the 6-foot-3-inch American diplomat, sheathed in black spandex, asking for help with a derailleur.

Kerry, a connoisseur of sports gear of all kinds, “behaved just like a normal client,” Schumann gushed to the local paper 24 Heures.

Sadly, Kerry didn’t have a lot of time to “talk bikes,” Schumann said. But “he speaks really good French and is super nice,” the proprietor reported.

Kerry himself seemed in good shape, he added, venturing that the diplomat’s biking form was “not bad at all.”
