Giro, Stage 20: Flying Solo

Mikel Nieve's (Mitchelton-Scott) gamble paid off big.  Nieve, who spent most of this Giro working for his team leader, Simon Yates, showed just how strong of a climber he is.  He road all of the final climb on his own gaining time on all of the rest of those left in the race on the way to Cervinia and his team's sixth stage victory.  I have grown use to seeing less exciting vehicles as race cars, but leave it to the Giro d'Italia to use the gorgeous Alpha Romeos to ride the race directors and referees around.  Not bad, not bad at all.

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.
