Giro d'Italia Stage 19: Forgot to Turn

Some of the competitors decided to use their road bikes with aero bars, others decided to use a time trial bike and then trade out bikes once the road started up.  The trade off being more speed in the flat section saving more time than the cost of seconds it takes to switch bikes.  Rafal Majka (Tinkoff Saxo) sitting third in the Young Rider Competition, had quite a bit to ride for, but it seems that nerves or lack of concentration got the better of him.  He appeared to completely forget to make a turn, almost colliding with the barriers and losing precious seconds in his quest to hold his position in the General Classification.  This is an original 4'x6" watercolor and ink postcard that is available for purchase through my artist website at www.greigleach.com.  For this particular painting you can follow the direct link at the end of this post, but why not browse around at all of the art on offer?
