Tour, Stage 6: On His Own


Alexey Lutsenko (Astana) came to the summit of the Col de la Luscette all alone.  He had dropped each of his break away companions with a relentless pace, a pace he used to catch and then drop the much younger Nielson Powless (EF Pro Cycling).  While he clearly had the legs to keep going, it had to be a bit frustrating that the road kept going up from here.  It was still another 12.5 kilometers to the finish of the stage on Mont Argoual.  He could take some comfort that there was only one man within a half minute of him, and the peloton of favorites was over three minutes back.

It look like he was going to take the stage, but he was too far down the general classification to have any hopes of pulling on the Maillot Jaune at the end of the stage.

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.
