Dauphine Stage 2: Sprinting for Polka Dots

To clarify this title, the leader of the King of the Mountains competition in the Dauphine wears a red jersey with white polka dots (the reverse of the Tour de France).  So the five man break knows that one of their group will win the right to wear the jersey at the end of the stage.  Today, it was Kevin Reza (Europcar) had the legs to summit the first five climbs of the day first.  Each time he was followed over the top by Thomas Damuseau (Giant Shimano).  Damuseau did have an advantage of knowing these roads, the peloton road past his house at 37 kilometers into the stage.  This is an original small watercolor and ink painting that measures 4 inches by 6 inches and is available at my artist website, www.greigleach.com  To purchase this particular painting follow the direct link at the end of this post.  Do hurry though, you wouldn't want to miss out on this piece of art of the 66th Criterium du Dauphine.
