Tour of Britain Stage 6: Three Climbers

Angel Madrazo worked hard today to keep hold of the Skoda King of the Mountains jersey taking first place over all but the last climb to pretty much ensure that he will be wearing it at the end of the final stage in London.  Modrazo, Liam Holohan and Martin Velits dropped their break compatriots on the penultimate climb of the day hoping to reach the foot of the final climb ahead of the charging peloton.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that is available for purchase at my artist website.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the 2013 Tour of Britain.

Tour of Britain Stage 6: Two Minutes to the Good

The Tour of Britain has had a break up the road in every road stage of the race and Angel Madrazo has been there every time including today.  One of the hold overs from the days before race radios is the time keepers chalkboard.  A motorcycle goes between each of the groups on the road informing them of the time gaps between the peloton the break and any chasing groups in between.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that was created using cake watercolors, brushes and paper from www.richesonart.com a great family run art supply business.  In addition, this work is available through my artist website, just follow the direct link at the end of this post to get your piece of the 2013 Tour of Britain.
