The length (258 kilometers) and the weather conditions did not make for many happy riders. Once someone cracked on the steepest of climbs on the Harrogate circle, it wasn't far to the team support area. It had to be way too tempting to just pull off the road and leave the race. For Jonathan Castroviego (Spain) he had the added dis-incentive that his team leader (and defending World Champion) Alejandro Valverde, had all ready abandon the defense of his jersey. I would say it wasn't a day for those of sunny climes, but many nordic riders had already abandoned the race as well.
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.
