Criterium du Dauphine '25, Stage 6: And He Is Gone!


Once Alex Baudin (EF Education-EasyPost) realized his erstwhile breakaway companion, Michael Leonard (Ineos-Grenadiers), would be unable to work anymore, he was off.  The Frenchman on the American team was a local cyclist who knew this climb up the Cote de Domancy very well.  He was cheered on by fans and neighbors all of the way up to the line.  Sadly, he was caught and passed by the battle for the Maillot Jaune.  He was able to hang tough to finish sixth on the day.  Moreover, his efforts not only earned him the most combative rider's award, he also becomes the new owner of the Maillot a Pois by a single point.  To remind you the polka dot jersey (Maillot a Pois) is award to the rider with the most King of the Mountain points.

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.
