And then there are some men who just like kicking neon-clad attention-seekers in the shins.

The Tour de France bore witness to the second one of those on Thursday as one of Le Tourโ€™s superfans ran uphill alongside Tejay Van Garderen. He looked absolutely overjoyed with his stride, his bumbag, his OMG vestโ€ฆ until he had a mouthful of tarmac.

Hereโ€™s the video, filmed from a safe distance. Notice how blue t-shirt man seems almost unable to believe what heโ€™s done and attempts to shuffle behind a crowd.

Lycra-man appears to lose a phone in his quest for vengeance.
