Tour '22, Stage 11: The Two Men of the Tour


Try as the might, Jumbo-Visma had yet to crack the Maillot Jaune of Tadej Pogacar (UAE-Team Emirates) as they started up the Galibier.  In fact, it could be argued that with the exception of Jonas Vingegaard, Jumbo-Visma may have just cracked themselves.  Near the summit it was just the two top men on the general classification fighting it out to see who might have the lead tomorrow.  

On a side note both of these riders are in their early twenties.  That is a great sign for the future of the Tour and competitive cycling.  I am noticing a generational change in the peloton, and while I miss some of my long time favorites, today is making for some very exciting racing.

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 $90 USD including shipping, and yes, international shipping is available.
