With the peloton out of the equation, the breakaway set about trying to shed the dead weight on the climb of the Ballon d'Alsace. After multiple attacks, each counter by another, all of the sprinters and many of the domestiques were already off the back. As they neared the summit, Luke Plapp (Jayco-Alula) was the next to have a go. He got clear of Tom Pidcock (Pinarello-Q36.5) whom no one else seemed willing to help in the chase. Pidcock was marked by Kevin Vauquelin (Netcompany-Ineso), Maim Van Gils (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe), and the other four guys left off the front of the splintering breakaway.
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.
