C'mon guys, we have all misjudged things at one time or another.

I have absolutely no idea how you pick one tweet out to post. I'm not even sure I know how to post links, let's see what happens...0 -
He probably didn't appreciate it at the time and it was a bit of a d*ck thing to do but from what I've seen Kittel has quite a good sense of humour.0

You've pieced together how Nico, who earlier tweeted "Not very respectful! And definatly not funny!" actually knows the lad?
Arf!
Now, where's that thread dedicated to photos of exhausted riders?“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0 -
Photo of the year!Half man, Half bike0

Certainly disrespectful but given it's just exhaustion rather than a crash and an injury I find it pretty funny as would I suspect most riders?
Obviously different if it hadv'e been Dan Martin lying on the N'ards road clutching his collarbone.0 -
I wouldnt do it. Not everyone is capable of self-restraint in times of high emotion.
Not even sure how he was allowed to be there at that point?Contador is the Greatest0 -

I think it's been a highly successful few days and wouldn't be at all surprised to see it repeated. The organisers get a few million in the bank, the host countries get a big out of season tourist boost and some boring, flat stages in bad weather got a far bigger roadside crowd than they would have in Italy.
I agree with everything, but in particular the bit in bold.
This weekend has been the most expensive weekend away I have ever had. Over two grand spent on ferries, 3 nights hotel for family, 3 nights baby sitters, giro T shirts for weans, cycling tops, hand clappers, petrol and many other assorted pink things, food, drink, wedding anniversary night out and the ******* wee-wee take that is the National Trust building at Giant's Causeway.
Our 2010 entire month following Le Tour was only £500 more expensive.
Thank god much of it is tax deductible because of the whisky tasting I did.
Ayy Caramba ! 2 Grand for all that ?
The Giro pack of tee shirt, Cap, Bag, Clappers and wrist bands were a tenner.
We had a travel lodge 2 mins walk from the route for about £50 a night.
Flights were £65 return.
Eating out was as expensive as you liked I guess - but hey - its not often the Giro starts so close to us eh ? A great weekend that we'll remember for years.0 -
