With the breakaway now back in the fold, or on out the back of the peloton, it was time to wind up the time bonus sprint. In three separate stages of this Tour, there are sprints late in the stage that award bonus seconds. Actually, they give you a bonus of subtracted seconds from your overall time. The American Chloe Dygert (Canyon/SRAM-zondacrypto) was leading out her teammate in the Polish National Champion's Jersey, Katarzyna Niewiadoma who was chased in turn by Pauline Ferrand-Prevot (Visma-Lease a Bike), an apparently recovered Demi Vollering (FDJ-Suez). Pauline took second in the sprint, followed by Katarzyna getting four seconds and two seconds removed from their overall time respectively. Demi just missed out getting a bonus. It is Anna Van Der Breggen (SD Worx-Protime) who is just sneaking into the frame of this painting.
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.
