Sylvain Chavanel, the five time French National Time Trial Champion, had the misfortune of being on one of the two descents when a little down pour dampened the roads making the corners treacherous. In two of the corners prior to this one he had his rear wheel slide out from under him, unlike others, he was able to keep himself upright and pretty much at speed. But he had to back off of his charge to the valley and the finish, and was unable to post a competitive time. 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.
