Tour Stage Twelve: The Magic Spray

The race doctor is rather limited in what she can do for the injured riders during the stage, between having to treat them on the bike at speed and ban substances for prevent doping, but she does have the magic chilling spray.  I wonder how much it actually helps and how much of it is like a "kiss and make it better" effect.  So the doctor will clean the wound, dress it if necessary and then send them on their way.  She, and the entire medical team will verify the condition of the rider at the end of the stage with mobile x-ray and scanning equipment that follows the Tour everyday.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that has been created using cake watercolors, brushes and paper from www.richesonart.com   In addition, this work is available for purchase at my artist website, just follow the direct link at the end of this post.  Do hurry, you wouldn't want to miss your chance to have a piece of the 100th Tour de France.
