    I’m genuinely curious about what that W stands for. A few seconds of searching only resulted in different reports of this same story. The French word for motorcycle is simply ‘moto’ or ‘motocyclette’.

      Maybe a wayward autocorrect? “WC” is used extensively in Europe, although its meaning is… rather different.
