Tour Stage Three: Throwing At the LIne

The peloton had managed to sweep up every attempt to get away, from Rolland to Chavanel's second late attack in a row, so it was up to the sprinters to make it happen for the stage.  It was up to Bakelants to make sure no gaps opened between him and the first across the line.  This one was so close that neither Peter Sagan nor Simon Gerrains knew who had crossed the line first.  It was a photo finish that showed Gerrains had thrown his bike across the line just ahead of Peter and it was Rojas for Moviestar bringing up third.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that is available through a short 3 day auction on ebay.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to bid on your piece of the 100th Tour de France.  Hurry, the auction begins as soon as this post is published.
