I was upset when I learned that Jonathan Milan (Lidl-Trek) was going to be on the Tour de France squad instead of Mads Pedersen. Clearly, team management knows more about what they are doing than I do. Despite the other sprinter's teams doing a lead-out Milan was easily able to jump clear to grab maximum points in the intermediate sprint in Villers Bocages. This was the first time he got to sprint from the front of the peloton since no breakaway had yet formed. Behind him it was Mathieu Van Der Poel and then Biniam Girmay taking second and third, but they were several bike lengths back. They didn't even make this painting. This was the last time we saw any of the sprinters today. They found the fast fight to start a breakaway too much on the first climb of the day and finished the day roughly a half hour after the stage winner.
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 $99 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
