I loved the phrase that Phil Liggett used to describe what the spectators got to see as Chris Froome went by them in his aerodynamic tuck, "A Flash of Yellow". It just seemed to perfect not to be a title of a painting, it just suits this image so well. Chris Froome was confident that he would ride a good time trial, but I don't think he thought that he would gain time on everyone except the stage winner, Tony Martin (but then Martin is so far down on GC, that he was not threat to the jersey). This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that is available for purchase at my artist website. Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the 100th Tour de France.
