Tour de France Femmes '24, Stage 6: Leaving the Others Behind


Using the climb of the Core de la Rouche du Pretre, these six women jumped clear of the breakaway that they had been with most of the day.  Leading the escapees is Sheyla Gutierrez (Movistar) followed in turned by the Olympic Time Trial Gold Mealist Grace Brown (FDJ-Suez), Justine Ghekiere (AG Insurance-Soudal), Soraya Paladin (Canyon/SRAM).  It is Marianne Vos (Visma-Lease a Bike) bringing up the rear of the group.  Ghekiere has been grabbing Queen of the Mountain points all day and is now the virtual owner of the Maillot a Pois.  She is also the current virtual Maillot Jaune too, but that isn't likely to stand.  She did become the new Queen of the Mountains at the end of the day, conversely, she lost placings in the general classification.

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.
