This Vine of a Tour de France rider being denied a kiss is just too awkward

Give us a kiss. Actually no, wait. It’s fine.

LOOK, THE FACT that you’re really good at cycling doesn’t mean the girls will want to kiss you.

Italian rider Vincenzo Nibali learned this the hard way after winning the second stage of the Tour de France yesterday.

After getting a little peck on the cheek from one of the women on the podium, he tried his luck with the other one.

She only wanted to weirdly pat him on the back of the neck, it seems.

“Oh no actually, I just had to fix my collar. No kiss needed. OR WANTED.”

UPDATE: It appears Vincenzo decided to kiss the toy lion he was given instead. That’ll show her.
