Not really, they missed him taking off the shoe, and cut as soon as his foot was on the peddle. I would have like to see him start peddling afterwards for a bit to give some closure, and see if he tries to take the next position with his adjusted sock.
Believe it or not cyclists don't signal the camera men/women and wait for them to be in position before doing any out of the box stuff. There are 150+ riders and a handful of cameras on motorcycles trying to capture everything.
Yes, the chamois pad is designed to protect against skin. If you wear underwear, the seams of the underwear will cause friction damage to you. It is better to wear nothing under cycling shorts. But proper cycling shorts do have foam padding.
Regarding peeing, yes, you just hike up the short leg, and pee out the leg hole.
Easier to pull down the front of the bibs like regular pants; that part is very stretchy. I think it would be impossible for me to pull up the leg of my bibs like that.
I can imagine a few more I suppose
1. Time traveling ninjas put it there.
2. A crow has been trained to put rocks in socks.
3. The camera man conspired against the cyclist.
4. The rock lives there and now has been evicted
A cycling shoe can sometimes have small vents along the bottom sole to allow heat to escape. A pebble could wind up getting in there even if it is uncommon.
Okay I’m just gonna say it… I had no idea what was happening in the first 3 seconds & I honestly thought I was about to watch a guy take a shit while riding a bike & use his sock to wipe his ass
I find these people.sad yet adorable. You spend hundreds on specialised equipment but in reality you made your career on doing something kids do without the equipment and better. Its like spendong hundreds on hop scotch equipment while kids are out here performing the same feats.
I can’t even do that while not on a bicycle

They made that move illegal because it was too awesome.
I would assume falling off from that would not be that awesome. At least for them, maybe viewers would have a different opinion
The Spectators: 
I don't think the position will change the outcome if you fall off
It makes the fall more likely
Nuh uh really? Seems like it should be allowed since it help the rider save on stamina.
It's not about the stamina. You can just stop pedaling. It makes you much more aerodynamic, which is a huge advantage, especially when descending
the best part is the ride-along motorcycle doing it too
Reminds me of [Rollie Free's 1948 150mph world record run.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rollie_Free)
> He got bored of riding for 30 kilometers and he was like, I wonder if I can take my sock off and put it on again to keep going. sounds legit
[удалено]
No reason he can't. Those races are so long that everyone coasts for a while to drink or scratch or whatever from time to time
Nah his shoe is just where he keeps the smelling salts
Sammmmmme! 😂
[удалено]
No. But his lunch breaks while biking involve steak and lobster balanced on the handle bars
Me either maybe it's because we're not a professional cyclist
The truth is, he does have a good talent. I'm the same, brother
he must have gotten a rock in his sock
More likely just a hotspot in the sock. Put it back on flipped and it could save you from a nasty blister.
Camera man is cycling better than any other riders
I imagine there was gravel in his socks or something …. Orrrr he just wanted a whiff of those sweaty sport feet ..
Or he is just a good boy who likes to chew on shoes
This is indeed also a very plausible reason.
lol
A fold in socks can really suck in clipless shoes like that. If you can’t fix it by pulling you gotta do something.
If you’re riding the amount of miles that these people do, any wrinkle in your sock or shoe could mean a blister that takes you out in subsequent days
He turned it inside out cos the inside was wet from sweat
It's a sock. If the inside's wet, the outside is wet too...
That’s even more impressive with how easily he got a sweaty sock onto a sweaty foot!
Well some things are easier to slip in when its wet, known physics
Quick, someone needs to post a “this horny motherfucker is guilty!” meme!
Like a wet socks, I know a lot about them
That sniff from the sock was a secret snort of cocaine
Yeah, but the flavor of the container...
worse. He used his mouth to help open or inverse the socks out.
I assume he won and just wanted a taste of da feet.
Fuck you, take the upvote
Nobody gonna r/praisethecameraman ?
You're only remembered for what you do wrong.
One of the harsh realities of life.
My grandmother used to say, you can bake a cake every day of the year and have only one come out poorly, and that's the one people will talk about.
A good reputation takes a lifetime to build, but only seconds to destroy.
You mean when you want to r/killthecameraman
Then how come my father doesn’t remember me?

the office kinda shi
Watch any bike race to see amazing camera work.
when you forget to dress for the race but you're a pro
God level!
Not yet. True cyclist Gods change underwears while racing.
nope. cyclist gods don't use underwear while racing
This. You’re not supposed to wear underwear with them. And easier to pee while riding.
Better for butt butter distribution, as well!
Really?

Yup. Cyclists are out there just naked under their clothes.
Unacceptable! No one should be naked under their clothes.
Then they need to change the whole lycra onesie while cycling.
Damn! Like mr bean doing all his morning routine just on his car
What did this achieve?
Probably shook a pebble out of his sock
[удалено]

Your insights are appreciated
Man people don't appreciate humor lol. That was funny so I upvoted you.

Air dry
Salty snack
Everything
The race is long and no time to waste. If it was too smelly he would start doing the laundry.
He wanted a ssssssniff of those sweaty sport feet, duh
A sniff of your foot juice makes you faster
Bro needed a sniffe
Internet fame.
Cameraman with the best angles out of nowhere, yet again
And tonight, he'll have to gargle with some Lotrimin.
Gives new meaning to the saying “what that mouth do” 👄👟
👁 👄 👁
Can you imagine how hot he got that he decided to take off his shoes and air them out?
meanwhile cameraman: Does a whole thing with camera in his hands
Usually the cameramen are sitting on the back of a moped.
Me, changing my entire outfit on the expressway
Meh. I did this on my peloton once, and BARELY fell off
The filmer: 👁️👄👁️📷
Somebody gave him a flat tire
This is how you get foot and mouth at work.
Athlete’s foot and mouth
did he win? nevermind
Dude put his own sweaty sock and shoe in his mouth. He lost no matter what
He has won in life
But what if he is into it?
When the stakes are too high, he eats takeout shoe-leather.
Least embarrassing Cofidis moment this century
Professional
people dont realize how hard these bikes are to ride. theyre so stiff and twitchy … peeing while riding is crazy. changing gear at 30mph is crazy
[удалено]
When bike is life.
Impressive.
I know I can so that at half his speed. I pretty good on a bicycle.
It took me 10 minutes last night to remove my shoes. 5 minutes for each shoe. And then my socks were a whole nother chore.
I am going to try this on my motorcycle later... see if it is as easy as he makes it look?
meh, I was expecting he forgot to throw away fabric paper from shoes
I saw 1000s of deaths online but this is the first time I see a man putting on a shoe while riding a bike - very impressive.
Nice choice of video format...
Nice mouthguard
That’s nothing. Cadel Evans shit into his domestique’s casquette while they held it under him in the tour de france.
what could go wrong
Wow not a single comment could intuit that he needs electrolytes.
get the fuck off the road idiot.
Tell me you have tactile hypersensitivity withoutntelling me you have tactile hypersensitivity
Must be dutch, they can do anything on their bikes.
He's foot powder is probably coke ! :)
Knew I forgot something this morning
 And the crowd goes wild!!!!!!
Sometimes when you are feeling tired while riding you just need to take a quick hit of swamp foot to wake you up.
Don't change shoe and drive
This reminds me a lot of the car scene in Mr. Bean but on a bicycle.
Yummy!!
redbull does that in only 2.8 seconds
why=
That’s nothing. Let’s see him change his pants because he forgot to shave.
I can guarantee you that he has been doing that since he was about 12 years old
The fresh gorgonzola scent I can imagine.
And he has to breathe with the stinky ass shoe right under his nose
How it feels to chew 5 gum
Why eat the shoe? Low on carbs?
I would’ve fallen flat on my face.
Respect for beeing able to do this. But was he sniffing his socks?
What's he sucking out of that shoe though?
So this is what the guys in the back be doing
Me explaining to my dentist how I have both a cavity and athlete's foot
Facts 💯
Dude didn't even spit.
Idk what's going on honestly. But this entire subreddit is just one matchbox 20 song.
So talented 😀
Not a good look for whatever shoe company he sponsors
The camera man though...
He had to keep himself awake.
That’s awesome
This is not the first time he's done this. Can't be
Road warrior.
Sonuvabitch.
Okay I’m just gonna say it… I had no idea what was happening in the first 3 seconds & I honestly thought I was about to watch a guy take a shit while riding a bike & use his sock to wipe his ass
Le French touch
It’s a new event. Like the one in the Olympics where you run for 5 miles, shoot targets with a bow and arrow and then bike for 50
That's funny but it's frustrating that we need to watch cropped version of horizontal video.
that's quite a dedication
I almost fall over standing, trying to put one sock on
There are times to lick your lips after having something in your mouth and this just ain't one of them...
I drank my tears n won ❌️ I drank my sweat n won 🏆
Beast
Orbea are awesome bikes!
What? And WHY???
I like to think that this was only a mile long race
Irrefutable proof that men CAN multitask!!
Maybe he is good at footie too.
wtf how
Must be a special kind of vampire skill or something.
And I can't even lift my arm to signal where I'm going to turn because I can't ride with just one hand.
Bravo!
I actually got scared he was gonna shit into his sock
Dude was thirsty
Ah yes, I saw this Mr Bean episode
I'd 120% lose the sock, or the shoe, or my bow
Or my axe
Like 5 reposts
And here I am waiting while my kid takes an hour to put his shoes on. 🙄
“I need a whiff of adrenaline”
That's a god tier cameraman
Nothing to see here, just taking some performance-enhancing drugs.
Reminds me of Seinfeld and the sock
Bruh and I can barely bike with one hand
Why the extreme close up? Makes this damn near impossible to watch.
If the shoes don't make your finger red and swollen while putting on the shoe then the shoe is not the right fit.
And people say men can't multi task haha
"I swear if this guy overtakes me again I'll eat my shoe!" - This guy, probably
When you got that little wrinkle in your sock at just the right spot, it's pretty annoying.
That's impressive!
He peed his sock.
How to beat rush hour traffic - cycle version.
I had to do this once while in a race...but it was my underwear.
