Tour Femmes '22, Stage 7: On to the Final Climb


This group has been hanging out in the middle of the leader's and the group of the Maillot Jaune for kilometers.  It was nice to see Urska Zigart (BikeExchange-Jayco) dangling off of a leading group rather than the back of the peloton.  Her riding position implys she isn't comfortable around her fellow riders.  It seems she should just go on a solo raid since she is spending the entire Tour de France Femmes riding in the wind anyway.  She was keeping close to Silvia Persico (Valcar-Travel & Service), Evita Muzic (FDJ-Suez-Futuroscope) as they sextet swung onto the road that will take them up the Grand Ballon.  Zigart moved up 43 places due to her efforts on the day, she still sits 46th on the general classification.  Persico is riding to hold onto her third place over all.  If she can't catch the two up the road, she will slide down a bit.  She did slide to sixth. I was still trying to figure out if Muzic was riding for her team leader, or the other way round.

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
