Milano-Sanremo, Looking for His Car
Normally the last of the Spring Monuments, the 111th Milano-Sanremo was moved to the heat of August for this Covid-19 altered 2020 cycling season. Since Italy is finally opening up, the race was allowed, but the mayors along the traditional coast roads refused to close the roads for the race. After all they finally could generate some very much needed tourist income. So not only is this edition hotter than normal, it is racing on new inland roads that made the race into a 305 kilometer race.
With still another 97 kilometers to race, Leonardo Bonifazio (Total Direct Energie) was dropping off the back of the peloton in search of his team car. It was of the upmost importance to keep feed and hydrated on this longest of races of the season. The camera didn't stay with Bonifazio to confirm that he was getting supplies for himself or for all of his teammates, but I am sure it was the latter.
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.
