Tour '24, Stage 18: Three Free to Fly


Both Victor Campenaerts (Lotto-Dstny) and Matteo Vercher (TotalEnergies) were finally able to bridge up to Michal Kwiatkowski (Ineos-Kwiatkowski).  Kwiato was hoping he could break the stage win dry spell in this Tour for his team.  The legacy of Ineos-Grenadiers is vast and very successful with about a decade of Tour Yellow Jersey with three different men.  Here we are almost to the end of stage 18 and they have yet to win a stage.  Arguably the strongest of the three, it seems this will be the chance to break the drought.  With a mere twenty-five kilometers to race, the trio had twenty seconds on the five-man chasing group, another minute and twenty seconds to the main chasers, and a whopping thirteen minutes back to the peloton containing all of the leaders' jerseys.

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.
