Thymen Arensman (Netcompany-Ineos) had the misfortune of having a flat tire on the previous climb. The guy he was with has now joined the leaders of the stage, but he is continuing to try and chase back on. At this point he is still twenty-four seconds behind them. As he continues to climb the Col du Page he still has two-and-a-half minutes on the peloton containing all of the leaders' jerseys including the Green Jersey of the sprinters. But then, that is on the shoulders of Mads Pedersen who is a decent climber for a sprinter. Sadly, Arensman never made it back to the breakaway. Under the advice of his director sportif, he sat up and joined back up with the peloton further up the Col du Page.
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.
