Giro Day Twenty Two: Attacking in Pink

I paint in awe of Vincenzo Nibali!  He has over four minutes on his nearest competitors and is climbing the last mountain of the 2013 Giro d'Italia, he is cold snow covered and is in is 12th day of wearing pink, and yet he collects all of the break aways up the road, and then goes clear to solo to victory in the Maglia Rosa.  Understand he had no real reason to attack, but then a competitor always competes.  I am sure he didn't make a lot of friends within the peleton, but he earned everyone's respect.  He had sealed his victory with his time trial, today, he cast it in stone.   This is an original watercolor and ink postcard and is available through my artist website.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post, but hurry, you know everyone wants this image of the 2013 Giro!
