For those without Twitter:

Tweet: "Merci pour ce genre de connerie humaine … je pense ne pas avoir été le seul victime de crevaison dans le final … sachez qu’on peut tomber et se faire très mal avec vos conneries bande d’abrutis … 🤬"

yeah, sorry, I forgot now it can't be seen without an account, and Nitter is broken too

Not enough Mastodon migration from the less technically inclined

All good :) we all need to get used to Twitter being broken.

Twitter got some metaphorical nails in its tyre.

Apparently Tom Pidcock was also affected and he had to descend with the nails in the tire.

Absolute criminal - hope they refer it to the police.

This is really sad to see. You would think people would understand having an event like this is good for your city

Oh my gosh I hadn’t heard that. No wonder there were so many leaks! This is really bad, they could have really endangered riders!

I wouldnt expect this in the basque country. I thought cycling is well respected
