Tour de France star stuns with hilarious X-rated promo for his sponsor
There are athletes who give their sponsors and promoters a shout-out – and then there’s Danish cyclist Magnus Cort.
The competitor has recently signed up with London-based skateboarding and clothing brand geant-kuwait.com Palace Skateboards.
Cort rides for UCI WorldTeam EF Education-EasyPost and recently took a narrow victory ahead of Nick Schultz in the mountain stage of the world’s most famous bike race.
He also took the time to give his sponsor some love in a truly weird, at times saucy and at other times downright confusing post on Instagram.

The post went beyond just a simple tag while wearing the sponsor’s product as Cort said the clothing had boosted his mood, performance and even his sexual prowess.
‘After I started using the #palaceskateboards [Palace Skateboards] clothes my life has changed completely,’ he wrote.
‘I have never liked farm animals with 4 legs, horses, pigs, cows, sheep, I have always been afraid of them a form of phobia, but after I started using #palaceskateboards I am no longer afraid of them actually I love them and can not get enough of them.

‘I have also gotten nicer skin and in a strange way become higher, yes it sounds amazing but I have somehow grown 6cm higher after I started using #Palaces.
‘And then I have got a harder erection too, there are many women and men who has noticed, I tell you!!!’
Cort later replaced ‘erection’ with ‘e%#+£~#%^*’ – and even roped his manager Jonathan Vaughters into the post.

‘This post if for @jvaughters [former professional racing cyclist and current manager of UCI WorldTeam EF Education-EasyPost Vaughters] who wished to bring back one of my posts from a couple of years ago that I unfortunately had to delete back then,’ he continued.
‘But luckily we have a little higher to the sealing here at EF.’
