I keep on threatening to write a translation for customers of bike shops: for example :
"We haven't quite finished it but it will be ready by this evening" actually means, "er we haven't quite started the job...."
A "hit a small hitch" means the most junior and incompetent mechanic/teaboy has dropped the wrench of Godzilla on your carbon frame and fatally cracked it, the boss is trying to fly in a replacement.....
