Tour Stage Eighteen: Team Mates

Chris Froome was an invaluable teammate to Bradley Wiggins in the 2012 Tour, burying himself in service of his team leader,  Froome has been paid back in spades in the form of Richie Porte.  Today Porte was dropped by either their rivals accelerations or from Froome himself several times and each time, he would recover and ride back up to his friend and team leader to work as hard as he could for the team and the Jersey.  Froome was moved when Porte showed up at his side yet again, putting his arm around his shoulder and telling him what I can only assume was his deepest gratitude.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that can be yours by visiting my artist website.  While you are there, why not browse all of the art on offer?   Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the 100th Tour de France.
