Criterium du Dauphine '25, Stage 2: Waiting for His Sprinter


Despite his team's sprinter, Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) already having two other teammates helping him, Julien Bernard was also called back to help pull Milan back up to the peloton.  The penultimate climb had proven too much for the big sprinter to stay with the main group, but they now had a long descent and flat roads to catch back on.  They are facing one more climb before the finale in Issoire, but that one is nowhere near as hard as the Category 2 Cote du Chateau de Buron.  We will have to wait and see if the strategy paid off in Issoire.



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.
