The TdF has a long history of protests usually by people not riding bikes. More often than not it is French farmers
A few years ago when the cops pepper sprayed the protesting farmers for putting bales of hay in street... which led to the cops accidentally pepper spraying the peloton

Was that already 2 years ago? Wow time flies. I remember they had to pause the peloton for a good 30-45 minutes while the riders got the pepper spray off of them.
Wild. I hope we still get to see borat, the devil, etc in the mountains this year.

Yeah that was 2018 which was a nuts year. Team Sky got spit on, Nibali broke his back when a fans camera strap got hung on his bars, in the same stage as the protest Gilbert slammed into a wall and broke his kneecap on the same decent as Fabio Casartelli died on in 1995. BTW Casartelli was a teammate of Armstrong on the Motorola team and when he won a stage a couple of days later he pointed to the sky and blew kisses.
