US Pro Challenge Stage Two: Chatting

Today's stage started with a big climb out of Aspen over Independence Pass and crossing the Continental Divide (the water going down one side goes to the Pacific Ocean and down the other side leads to the Atlantic -maybe by way of the Gulf of Mexico).  As all of the riders have noted, the climbs are really high altitude with today's highest point at 12 1/2 thousand feet.  This is Andy Schleck and Chris Froome having a chat as they cross the wide flat valley before starting back up the Hoosier Pass just 16 miles from the finish in Breckenridge, Colorado.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that was created using cake watercolors, brushes and paper from www.richesonart.com  In addition this work is available in a short three day auction on ebay.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the US Pro Challenge.
