Tour '22, Stage 19: Going Off Script


Normally, on a flat stage no one would try to gain time on the race leader, but then Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) is certainly not a normal rider.  Pogacar saw Max Schachmann (Bora-Hasgrohe) and Hugo Houle (Israel-Premier Tech) winding up to attack the peloton in some minor crosswinds.  He may have thought, "why not have a go?"  I am sure neither Schachmann nor Houle were pleased to see the man in second over all going off the front with them.  With the Maillot Blanc with them, there was no way the peloton was going to let this threesome go up the road.  In fact it was Wout Van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) was the one who popped out of the peloton and brought them all back.

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. 

If you can't afford to purchase a piece you could always help keep me going by buying me a cup of coffee at buymeacoffee.com/greigsartc.  And check out my vlogs at my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLGX-TnjXDSkkOidUE6pN1g
