We can never say it enough: don't run next to the runners!

Especially if you are a dog.

Any man's best friend that he is, the doggo is the enemy of the peloton as we saw again on Thursday, on the 12th stage of the Tour de France.

A dog crossed the road and caused the falls of Yves Lampaert and Steven Kruijswijk, yellow jersey teammate Jonas Vingegaard.

It is also quite miraculous that no one else has tasted the bitumen.

Yves Lampaert and Steven Kruijswijk fell at the start of the stage yesterday.

The explanation: a dog crossed the road, finding himself in the middle of the peloton.
