While I know that it can be rather chaotic in the caravan of team cars and race vehicles behind the peloton, this was downright frightening! As Anthony Turgis (TotalEnergies) and Lars Boven (Alpecin-Deceuninck) were coming back to the tail of the bunch it seemed all of the team cars were trying to pass each other. They were completely blocking the road. Just now, Turgis had to slam on his breaks to avoid hitting the Uno X Mobility car. To make matters worse, after being forced to bleed off their speed, the vehicles sped up leaving the pair no draft with which to get back up to speed. Later the two had to jump onto the sidewalk in order to miss other cars that slammed on their breaks to avoid crashing into one another. This sport is dangerous enough; the pro peloton shouldn't have to endure what we mere mortals deal while out riding every day.
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 $95 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
