Tour Stage Eighteen: The First to Start Up

Showing no fear of the fabled 21 switchbacks, this group of five road off from the others in search of the top of a stage victory or maybe just a head start up the mountain ahead of the peloton.  The group includes, Christophe Riblon, TeJay Van Garderen, Lars Boom, Moreno Moser and Sylvain Chavanel, most of these guys have been in the lion share of the breaks in the 100th Tour de France.  Even though the organizers had closed the roads for three days prior to the peloton's arrival, their were tens of thousands of pro-cycling fans lining every kilometer of the ever climbing road, and they knew they were going to see every rider pedal by them twice.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that can be yours by visiting my artist website.  While you are there why not browse around at all of the artwork on offer.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of art of the 100th Tour de France.
