// How to Make the Sponsors Angry

Posted on Thursday, July 30th, 2009

There was one stage in this year’s TDF in which the stage winner didn’t have his jersey fully zipped at the finish. In fact, the jersey was flapping in the breeze. Everyone I was watching the race with was muttering, “bad form! tsk!” “his jersey!” and “the sponsors!” It is a cardinal sin to win a stage and not throw your hands up in the air (look mom, no hands! style), and let the sponsor’s name on your chest shine for all the world to see. I think the guy (in what looks like a local race) in this video was trying to practice for the pros…but instead…EPIC FAIL.
