With the peloton all together, it was time for others to try and escape the grasp of the peloton. Or perhaps Quinn Simmons (Lidl-Trek) was doing what he could to shed some of the other sprinters on behalf of his sprinter Mads Pedersen. The attack by the Champion of the USA came on the last categorized climb of the day, the Cote de Montagny les Buxy. He was covered by Louis Vervaeke (Soudal-Quick Step). Vervaeke was riding in defense of his very successful sprinter, Tim Merlier. I love the way the peloton seems to be peering over the rise in the roadway as they climb.
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.
