Giro d'Italia Stage 20: A Hell of a Climb

After climbing to massive mountains and covering 150 kilometers and over 1500 kilometers thus far in the Giro d'Italia, the break away was about to start up the most hellish mountain in a Grand Tour.  In case they weren't aware of how much they were about to suffer, they were encouraged along by the Devil by the side of the road.  The Devil has long been a figure in every stage of the Tour de France, and it is a pleasure to see him healthy again, using his new knees to drive the peloton on. Chapeau!  At this point, Tim Wellens (Lotto-Belisol) is leading a small group of the front, a place he has been for the last couple of stages.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that is available for purchase through my artist website at www.greigleach.com.  For this particular original painting, just follow the direct link at the end of this post, but don't delay, it is a one of a kind.  And only $50 USD!
