A smaller group of 15 riders that included some big names had used the final climb of the day and the strong cross winds to get away from the main peloton, but still had a few remaining members of the early break up the road. Both Trek-Segafredo and Etixx-Quickstep had the luxury of having two men in the group. Boy Van Poppel (Trek-Segafredo) was working for his teammate, Jasper Stuyven, but Tom Boonen (Etixx-Quickstep) was willing to share the work with his domestique, Julien Vermote. Boonen had missed the move in yesterday's Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and wasn't willing to let the opportunity for victory elude him again.
This is a small original watercolor and ink painting that was created using Yarka St. Petersburg watercolors and Steve Quiller brushes from www.richesonart.com. This painting and many, many other pieces of cycling art are available through my artist website at www.greigleach.com. To purchase this particular painting, just follow the direct link at the end of this post. And yes, international shipping is available.
Plus, I have just released my second book, this one entitled, Art of Cycling: Richmond 2015 UCI Road World Championships. Obviously, it focus on the 2015 Championships that took place here in Richmond, Virginia this past September and includes my paintings and writings on all of the races contested on the very streets that I ride every week.
I am having trouble with loading my artwork on to my website. Please email me at greigsart@gmail.com if you are interested in purchasing this work, or any of my other Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne paintings.
