Ronde van Vlaanderen '25: Off He Goes!


As I am sure everyone expected, Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) went on the attack just as the cobbles began on the Oude Kwaremont.   Both Wout van Aert (Visma-Lease a Bike) and Edward Planckaert (Alpecin-Deceuninck) watched him launch the attack but didn't have the acceleration to go with the move.  Planckaert's teammate Mathieu van der Poel found himself out of position, but was able to weave through to get back to the World Champion's wheel.  The crowds on both sides of the road were loving their front row 'seats' to the Slovenian's display of power.  With another 56 kilometers to race, there was plenty of time to set things right.  Conversely, there were plenty of more climbs for Pogacar to go again.

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.
