"Segue" and "naivete." Both with long E sounds: seeg and naiveet. I never put it together that segue was segway until quite recently, in fact. I think the segway scooter came out at just the right point in my vocabulary development to mess me up on that.

And I'd still rather pronounce "quixotic" as key-ho-tic, even though no one else pronounces it that way or knows what I'm talking about.

In some ways, I can see it being beneficial, say on local roads with lots of turns. I ride two wheels and often put my foot down on a turn (which I know you're not supposed to do when you're a good rider), which probably wears out my shoes a lot.

I can't imagine it would be that beneficial on a highway, unless that rider has figured out some way to lock the wheels of the rollerblades into his clutch or something.
