It was just nine women that came to the final ascent of Col d'Eze together... Well, there is one woman still off the front, but she is only about twenty seconds ahead. This was the last time up, but the first time going this way. It was a truly stunning climb of steep switch backs line with houses, villas, and apartment buildings all looking back towards the sea. This is one of those climbs that I like to think I want to try but know I would hate myself about halfway up. With the exception of the fans on the side of the road, it was just race vehicles and fans back behind the tiny peloton.
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.
