One got coat hangered last night by another spectator. Was on the climb about 70 something to go with the breakaway. EDIT: Yeah that was the video footage of it a few pages back. Was funny as!!

Was hilarious. Camera went past, but just to the right hand side of the screen I saw an elbow extend (correction, fist, but it happened so quickly, doesn't matter, idiot stopped) and the person hit the deck. Been waiting a long time for that to happen.

The dog on stage 2...beyond stupid. The French aren't too bright at times. ;)

There they show it quite well (the punch that is)

On the whole though French dogs are much better behaved than US dogs, don't even mention Bolivian dogs (although above 4 000 m altitude they tend to become less aggressive).

Argentinian dogs are less of a problem : most are as flat as a (breton) crêpe when you see them on the road.

It should be a competition! Points given for best punch! That one is a clear 10 out of 10!
