This is an idiot woman, who is believed to be German, got on a flight and is untraceable. Pray for this woman is found. German rider Tony Martin then rode into the sign, which said “Allez Opi-Omi” (Come on granddad-granny, in a mix of French and German), and he was sent tumbling.

What does “allez opi-omi” mean?
Naturally, people have been wondering what message could have been important enough to cause someone to step out onto the road. Translated from French and German, “allez opi-omi” means “Come on grandpa-grandma.” Presumably, the woman intended to share a fun message with her grandparents, who were watching the race from elsewhere. After the crash, though, we’re guessing she probably hoped her grandparents weren’t watching.
Belgian rider Jasper Stuyven tweeted, “I hope Omi & Opi are proud of you. On a serious note, though, great to see still many spectators are loving our sport and cheering for us, but please, stay on the side of the road, not on the road!”
