Orange costumes makes me think they're Dutch.

Orange costumes make me think they should get the Nick Berg treatment.

Most of the orange on the TdF course, especially in the southern stages, is in support of the Basque riders. They have their own team, in orange.

Yeah, they're a bunch of clog wearing, chocolate munching, Heineken swilling, cheese eating, dyke building, tulip growing, Hans Brinker loving, land reclaiming, grandma killing, Dutch clowns.

And the one giving the finger is a dude.

They're Basque, wearing the colors of the Basque team, Euskadi-Euskatel.

They're pissed because their man, Iban Mayo, was supposed to be Lance's big challenge this year, and he wimped out and withdrew 2 stages ago.

They are basque nationalists that support the Euskaltel team.
