By the time the live coverage of the women's Omloop Nieuwsblad came on air there were only another thirty-six kilometers left to race. This four-woman breakaway had built up quite the lead on the chasing peloton. In fact, I would argue a ten-and-a-half-minute lead with so little road left to cover meant that one of these four women will be the next to win the Omloop today. Lotte Claes (Arkea-B&B Hotels) had the most experience of the group as they climbed the Leberg. On her wheel was Aurela Nerlo (Winspace Orange Seal), followed in turn by Elena Pirrone (Rolands) and Mieke Docx (Lotto). None of them have a Women's World Tour victory in their palmares yet, so someone should be having a very momentous day today.
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.
