The Devil
When he's at a race, you know it's a big event. This was taken at the World Time Trial Race. Didi Senft (born 1952 in Germany) is known as the Tour de France devil or El Diablo. Since 1993, he has been seen in the Tour's many stages wearing his red devil costume and painting a trifork on the road some miles before he'll show up. Senft attributes the inspiration for the costume to German cycling announcers who called the last lap of local criterium races, "the Red Devil's Lap."
