TDF, Stage 18: The Race Is Behind Him


Yet again, I get to use a title that has two different meanings.  First, clearly the racing is now behind Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) with a unsurmountable lead of over five and a half minutes.  And now with this stage win he will also win the Maillot a Pois, and given his age, he is the owner of the Maillot Blanc as well.  Just as he did last year.  The other race is for second and third in the Tour.  As they crossed the line, Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) added a few more bonus seconds to his second place ahead of Richard Carapaz (Ineos-Grenadiers).  With a flat stage tomorrow all the three of these guys have to do is stay upright and finish near each other.  But Saturday, the individual time trial could change some placings, but remember Vingegaard was third in the first TT.

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.
