TDF, Stage 13: A Fast Swap


There must have been some serious panic in the team car of Mark Cavendish (Deceuninck-Quick Step) when he had a flat tire in the last 20 kilometers of the stage.  To the mechanics credit it was an incredible fast bike change.  The team went for a full bike swap rather than take the time to remove and install a new rear wheel.  Cav remain very calm, which I am sure reduced everyone's stress level.  Now could he chase back on without spending too much of his energy for the final sprint.  If he were to get it right, he would tie the record for career stage wins.  No pressure on anyone here.

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 it is an original work of art, it is a first come first served reality. The painting was created using Yarka St. Petersburg watercolors from www.Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 USD plus shipping, and yes international shipping is available.
