There seemed to be a rash of flat tires in the peloton today. It could have been the showers that kept coming and going through the early part of the stage washing grit into the roadway. The Maillot Vert on the shoulders of Biniam Girmay (Intermache-Wanty) stopped and held his bike up for his mechanic to swap rear wheels. He seemed completely at ease, but then the peloton was in full cry and there was another 79 kilometers of racing before the sprint finale. Girmay is the only man in the peloton who has already won two stages this year. Obviously, while I am sure he wants more, and wants to keep the sprinters' jersey, the pressure is off for the Eritrean.
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 work sells for $95 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
