I have ridden this exact stretch of road! Not as fast, not without traffic and certainly not with anyone cheering my progress around the city, but exciting just the same. With half of the peloton out the back and out of danger, this duo of Viacheslav Kuznetsov (Katusha-Alpecin) and Christopher Juul Jensen (Mitchelton-Scott) thought they might be able to surprise the sprinters' and their teams. With 29 kilometers, or just under three laps to go, it was unlikely that they will succeed. It is the Colosseum on their right as they swing through the Piazzo del Colosseo and head into the finishing straight.
This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available though my website at
www.greigleach.com, or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of this post. Since it is an original it is first come first served. The painting was created using Yarka St Petersburg watercolors from
Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 plus shipping. And yes, international shipping is available.
