During the 2014 Giro d'Italia, a notable incident occurred involving a spectator wearing a "Borat mankini." Popularized by Sacha Baron Cohen's character Borat, is a neon green one-piece swimsuit. The spectator's appearance in such a distinctive and revealing costume became a humorous and memorable moment in the race, drawing attention from both the media and the public. These kinds of antics are relatively common in cycling races, where fans often dress up in outrageous costumes to entertain and support the riders.
