Tour '26, Stage 7: Trying a Late Attack


Uno x-Mobility lost their teammate today after he crashed on the final descent in yesterday's stage while wearing the Maillot Jaune.  He finished the stage but was unable to start today.  I think they wanted us and the peloton to know that they were still here and still racing.  With just ten kilometers to race they decided to try and surprise the sprinters with a late attack.  The Norwegian Champion Anders Skaarseth went first.  He was covered by the Dane Kasper Asgreen (EF Education-EasyPost) and his teammate (who I image he was riding for) Jonas Abrahamsen.  They got maybe a second or two before the sprinters' teams shut them down.  There are only today and maybe three other stages that suit the sprinters and they weren't about to let anyone steal off the front today.

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.
