A long time fixture along the side of every stage of the Tour for as long as I have been watching (and that goes back several years pre-Armstrong) I have seen the devil jumping up and down, waving his pitchfork clad all in red with a black cape. Obviously, he has had a costume change for the 100th Tour de France, wrapped in brilliant yellow, his long white hair flapping, he still carries the same energy and enthusiasm as when I first saw him so many years ago. Given the hellacious second climb of the Alpe d'Huez Riblon and Van Garderen already knew they were in hell, the devil just confirmed it. This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that can be yours in a short 3 day auction on ebay. Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the 100th Tour de France.
