I've been looking for the moment to paint the American and Tour debutante Matthew Riccitello (Decathlon-CMA CGM). He would have preferred me not to have had this opportunity. As the peloton climbed the Cote de Mont, the climber would have rather been continuing to help his team leader the younger Paul Seixas, than to be having a bike change after a flat tire. Given the importance of keeping Riccitello with Seixas for the final kilometers of the stage, the mechanic and director sportive opted for giving him his spare bike rather than taking the time to change his rear wheel since the race was fully on now.
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.
