Liege Bastogne Liege: Speeding Through Town

The next member of the early break to try and escape was Jerome Baugnies (Wanty Groupe-Gobert).  He was able to build a minute on the peloton and roughly a half minute on his erstwhile companions.  With 33 kilometers (and two catagorized climbs to go) it was unlikely that his move would succeed, but it was still a valiant effort just the same.  At least he got his team's sponsors names some air time and that is certainly of value.  Some riders will refer to these efforts as a "TV Break Away" with the sole purpose of advertizing their sponsors, in this case I feel like Baugnies was genuine in his hopes to steal the show.

This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available though my website at www.greigleach.com, or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of this post.  Since it is an original it is first come first served.  The painting was created using Yarka St Petersburg watercolors from Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 plus shipping. And yes, international shipping is available.
