On the "climb" of hill 63 (a whooping 63 kilometers above sea level) Fabio Jakobsen (Soudal-Quick Step) bedecked in his European Champion's jersey could see his prey just up the road. He was trying to bridge across to the five man group who had managed to ride away from the peloton. They in turn were chasing the early break away who were just about to summit the climb. Everyone has spent long miles racing in the cold, wet, breezy roads of Flanders all in search of cycling glory. Jakobsen never did make the juncture. And once caught by the peloton again, soon found himself off the back thanks to this effort. Still, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
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, but yes international shipping is both available and extra.
