Flanders 2021: Watching Every Move

Ruth Winder (USA) and Katarzyna Niewiadoma (Poland) had been keeping a close eye (and wheel) on every single move they were making.  This attack by Annemiek van Vleutin (Netherlands) was no exception.  Of course, Elisa Longo Borghini (Italy) was never far off the front being equally vigilant as those just in front of her.  With just another seven kilometers to race, there wasn’t a woman who was going to let anyone get away if they could possibly help it.  I am excited by this grouping.  I am a big fan of van Vleutin and Borghini, plus as an American I have to root for Winder.  And then finally, I first painted Niewiadoma back in 2015 when she led the women’s peloton down Main Street in Richmond, VA (my adopted hometown) in the UCI Worlds.

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.
