Remco Evenepoel (Belgium) had been dropping everyone, one by one, or in whole groups on the final circuit in downtown Paris. Has he went up the climb of Montmartre for the final time, he put in a big surge and drop the last guy, Valentin Madouas (France). As he came back down the other side on his way to the Eiffel Tower, he had a minute advantage over the Frenchman and another twenty seconds on the group of five still chasing. The Gold Medal would certainly be his barring any mechanicals or other mishap. Behind the barriers the Belgium fans were thrilled cheering on their man who had just won the Maillot Blanc and came in second in the Tour de France. I am quite sure it wasn't only Belgium fans that were thrilled to see this commanding performance from the man who has already won gold in the men's time trial last week.
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.
