This postman pulls down the crowd control barriers and threatens officials in an expletive littered tirade when he finds his path blocked by Tour de France route.
While always a massively popular event, the Tour de France crowds have been bigger than usual in recent years, especially when it visits countries outside France.
And the opening weekend in Holland has been no different, with crowds at the stage 1 TT rivalling those witnessed in cycling-mad Britain 12 months ago.
But some people were less pleased than others to see the racing in town it seems.
In the clip below, a man claiming to be a postman is irate at finding his path blocked by the Tour route in Utrecht.
He lifts his bike over the crowd control barriers, which he then pulls down as officials try to restrain him.

The first to intervene, one woman is told: "You touch me again; I’ll knock your teeth out."
He then launches into a similar tirade against others working at the race when they approach.

He claims he has "80 kilos worth of post" to deliver and is none too pleased with being momentarily stopped by the barriers needed to keep crowds and riders apart.
His bike and bags look like those of a postman, though his English accent has led some to question whether he's working for the Dutch postal service.
Perhaps he's an ex-pat working in Holland who's been away too long and hasn't quite picked up the cycling bug from the home country!
