Strade Bianche: Making Their Own Luck


Cycling is full of tradition (and superstitions) one of which is that the guy who has bib number 13 will flip one upside down inorder to ward off the bad luck.  It is one of those small rule infractions that is never enforced.  But this foursome that included Lilian Calmejane (Ag2r-Citroen) - number 13 - Marco Brenner (DSM), Taco Van Der Hoorn (Intermache Wanty Gobert Materiaux) and Samuele Zoccarato (Bardiani-CSF Faizane) was making their own luck off the front of the peloton.  With 62 kilometers to race, the group had a nice two minute gap on those behind, but lets face it, this one wasn't going to stick. 

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 and Steve Quiller brushes from www.Richesonart.com. The work sells for $75 USD plus shipping, and yes international shipping is available.
