Tour Stage Nineteen: Removing His Cape

Arthur Vichot, the Road Champion of France, had a rough descent down the Col du Madeleine, going head over heals into a ditch.  Fortunately he went off the road on the uphill side rather than going over the edge of the mountain.  He was more stunned and upset than he was hurt, all though he left some of his French skin on the roads of France.  Once he was down in the valley he passed his dirty, wet, torn tricolored vest to his team car and got on with the business at hand.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that is available for purchase at my artist website.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the 100th Tour de France.
