TDF, Stage 18: First One Down the Mountain


David Gaudu (Groupama-FDJ) may not have been the first over the top of the Col du Tourmalet, but he was the first back down the other side.  As he flew the town, he showed just how far he was willing to lean his bike over to carry maximum speed through the corners.  That might just be why he was the first one off the mountain.  Gaudu was hoping to have a big enough gap from the chasing peloton to stay away on the climb up the Luz Ardiden.  He wasn caught on the final climb yesterday so he was hoping to do a bit better today.

This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available through my website at 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.
