Tour 2012: Bike Doctor

Not only is there the race doctor in the car in the caravan, there are several medics on motorcycles ready to attend to the needs of the racers.  What amazes me is that the riders take these horrific falls, grab  another wheel or bike, jump back on and keep racing.  If they have been hurt, they can visit the medic and be seen to while still riding along at 40 kilometers per hour.  This is George Hincapie dropping back to get his arm bandaged while keeping his place in the break away.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that is available at my artist website.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post.
