Despite Kasia Niewiadoma (Poland) having gotten the jump on Demi Vollering (Netherlands) it was the Dutch woman who raised her arms in victory in Montreal! Niewiadoma appeared to cramp up just as Vollering pulled even with her in the sprint. In the distance you can just see Elisa Longo Borghini (Italy) who had just caught the other two when the sprint kicked off. So it is that Vollering takes first with Niewiadoma in second, just as they were in the Tour de France Femmes, and Longo Borghini takes another bronze medal at another World Championships. I don't image that the animosity that erupted at the Tour Femme between second and third was quelled today. Instead, I think it has been further inflamed. As on prone to cramps, I truly feel for Niewiadoma 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 top of this post to purchase this painting. 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.
