Tour '24, Stage 12: Left Behind


Pello Bilbao (Bahrain-Victorious) has not been having the Tour he hoped for.  He started the day in 35th having dropped from fifteenth on the fast mountain stage yesterday.  He was dropped on the first climb of the day but managed to catch the peloton on the way across the valley.  No sooner had the road head back up the Cote de Rocamadour than he popped back off.  He was watching team cars drive off and the gendarme on the motorcycle zipped pass him on the way to the front of the race.  So it wasn't much of a surprise when not long after this, his team car pulled over for a chat.  He simply pulled up, got off the bike and climbed into the back seat with the mechanic.  His Tour de France is over.

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.
