TDF, Stage 5 ITT: Does He Have the Golden Wings?


It is said that the Maillot Jaune gives you wings.  That implys that seeing the leader's jersey on your shoulders gives you the motivation to go that much deeper to hold onto the coveted leader's jersey.  It seemed to work just enough for Mathieu Van Der Poel (Alpecin-Fenix) to ride just fast enough to keep the lead for at least one more day.  With another flat stage tomorrow it most likely means at least two more days in yellow, tripling his own father's record and honoring his grandfather's memory just that much more. While he only manged fifth on the day, it was enough to hold off a charging Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) by eight seconds.  

This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available through my website at www.greigleach.com, or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of the post to purchase the painting above.  Since ti is an original work of art, it is a first come first seved reality. The painting was created using Yarka St. Petersburth watercolors from www.Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 USD plus shipping, and yes international shipping is available.
