Tour, Stage 4: Post Sprint Chat


In order to win the Maillot Vert of most consistant sprinter, one must be ready to race for every sprint point along every stage of the Tour.  While the three break away riders had sucked up the major points on offer in Lerouville, the marquee sprinters still revved up their legs for the more minor points left on the road.  With Elia Viviani taking the honors of the best of the rest, Peter Sagan (Bora-Hansgrohe) and Sonny Colbrelli (Bahrain-Merida) had a little chat afterwards as they waited for the peloton to catch back onto their wheels.  The pair had taken the next two placings, allowing Sagan to add to his sprint point tally.  Michael Matthews (Sunweb) seemed not to want to hear what they had to say.

Watch as I talk about this image while painting it in real time, here...

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.
