Giro d'Italia Stage 18: Attacking Columbians

If the first week of the Giro was the Giro d'Australia the final week has became the Giro de Colombia.  Colombians hold first and second place overall, and they hold the Maglia Azzuro of the King of the Mountains, and Team Colombia has been present in virtually ever break away in every stage.  Today's stage included Johan Davi Arredondo's (Trek Factory Racing) cementing his ownership of the KOM Jersey with taking the first two climbs of the day (and here he is looking to make it three out of three), however he is being challenged by his countryman, Fabio Andres Duarte (Team Colombia).  Now, along all of the roads of Italy are very happy Colombian fans proudly waving their flag and celebrating with abandon.  Who knew there were so many Colombians in Europe.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that is available for purchase through my artist website at www.greigleach.com.  For this particular painting follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the 97th Giro d'Italia.
