La Course: Driving Hard

The racing was hard and fast in the La Course, the accessible coverage in the United States was woefully lacking.  I felt like I was trying to watch the Tour de France in the seventies before cable or the internet.  So I apologize for not being able to give you the names of these women, or even the teams they are riding for.  But they brought the same level of racing to the Champs Elysees that would be witness in a few hours after their cash prizes and trophies had been rewarded.  This is a small original watercolor and ink painting that is available through my artist website at www.greigleach.com.  The work, and the race, will be included in my soon to be self published art of cycling book, "Book de Tour."  To learn more about the book project, to pre order your copy, or to become part of bringing the book to print, please visit https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1335072134/book-de-tour.  To purchase this particular painting just follow the direct link at the end of this post, but wouldn't you like to have a copy of the "Book de Tour" as well?  Of course you would!
