Dauphine Stage Six: Looking Around

Most of the time I get the feeling that the racers don't really even know where they are, let alone how beautiful their surroundings can be.  Here I seem to have caught them looking about, either checking to see how the other riders are faring, or to see the beautiful vista to their right.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that could be yours by visiting my artist website.  Why not look around at all of the other art while you are there.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post.

Dauphine Stage Six: Cooling Shower

On a long hard climb of the Dauphine, Thomas Voekler dumps a water bottle on the back of his neck in an effort to cool back down.  I have enjoyed Voekler ever since he held the Yellow Jersey for 10 days in the Tour de France, finally surrendering it to Lance Armstrong on the third day in the Ppyrennes.  The break away has lost some of its numbers, but still contains Voekler, Herrada and Wellens.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that can be yours by going to my artist website.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post.

Dauphine Stage Two: Bringing It Back Together

Omega Pharma Quickstep spent most of the day on the front of the peloton riding tempo and pulling in all of the break away riders, now they have only one rider up the road.  Even he is within their sites.  They have assistance from one of my favorites, Thomas Voekler, who is riding for his Europcar teammate and wearer of the Yellow Jersey of race leader.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that can be yours by visiting my artist web site.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post.
