Doubt we'll see a better one all year.

You have to lack all class and have no respect for riders to do that Panada stunt. In the final km of a 260km race. I hope he got taken out by fans. Loser.
If you want to see idiot fans, just look to Tour of Cali.
The ugly, selfless gits in this photo also come to mind:

On the Petit St. Bernard in 2009 (the climb before Voigt sanded his face off), there were a group of French guys each with one letter of "Voeckler" written on their bodies stood above a hairpin.
On seeing them Tommy rode no hands clapping."In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

Andy is no oil painting but I wouldn't call Contador ugly.

Jeez that is horrendous in the bikini. What's the opposite of a lady boy (no bits usually associated with either gender) 'cos that's one of them! Looks like Fatima Whitbread's more butch twin sister.0

Jens Voigt's views on the matter are worth adding: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQgWWceYwbYTwitter: @RichN950

I was about 50m down Caerphilly Mountain from that, the riders further back seemed to quite enjoy the atmosphere and got involved as you can see there with Matt. The Welsh cakes someone was ending up to them seemed to go down a treat as well.0 -
Vaughters seems relaxed about it......but then his man won and IIRC he doesn't rate highly on the FrenchFighter Class-o-meter either

They are obviously self-absorbed morons and desperate attention seekers.
However, I would very much like to see someone dressed as a dalek halfway up Alpe d'Huez.......Head Hands Heart Lungs Legs0 -
Just watched the last km of LBL again (the ITV4 show).
I can't believe I didn't even see the panda when I watched the live show as I was screaming that much at first J Rod then Martin.“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0 -

It was Pandamonium round ours too. There were a few scoffing at the natural break-gate; some even claiming they could do better standing on their heads....a rare 100% loyal Pro Race poster. A poster boy for the community.0 -
The guy that caught my eye in Liege on Sunday was the runner back in fourth behind the guy with the flag. He was wearing a suit but couldn't run for sh!t! Not sure what he was trying to achieve.
Should the following motorcycles have the green light to put these runners into the barriers? They were running directly behind the two leaders and would have been obstructing the chasers. It shows a real lack of respect for the race and the riders. One or two good motorcycle v stupid running spectator incidents might stop this practice in its tracks.

This has to be fancy dress, right? People didn't go around with hair like that, did they? :shock:0 -
Bit of a Sagan moment there!

Only one man can sort out these fancy dress fools. HINAULT! He is always spoiling for a good fight. Drop him off near a stretch of tarmac populated by some of these fans and you'll have a friend for life.
Too many fans for you to handle, Mr. Hinault? "Non, c'est un target-rich environment. Merci" *
* Bernard Hinault may or may not have uttered these words.

Don't see any problem with fans dressing up in fancy dress, watching a bike race is supposed to be a fun day out after all. It's the fans (in fancy dress or not) that get in the way of the riders and motorbikes that need a smack."I have a lovely photo of a Camargue horse but will not post it now" (Frenchfighter - July 2013)0

Not that much against it. Though, the ones in USA Pro Cycling Challenge are just there to take the p'iss out of the sport and and they are a danger to riders as well since they only care about the camera on the motorbike in front of them..0
