Tour de France 23, Stage 13: Leading on Bastille Day


Today is Bastille Day so it is no surprise that the French are eager to do well on the climb up the Grand Colombier.  Quentin Pacher (Groupama-FDJ) on a French team had an eight second advantage over those closest to him and another three and three quarter minutes on the peloton.  The French cycling fans (many shirtless in the heat) were thrilled to see one of their own first on the early slopes of this Hellish climb.  With another fourteen kilometers seemingly straight up, it was going to take something special to stay off the front, but 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 $95 USD including shipping, but yes international shipping is both available and extra.
