US Pro Challenge Stage 6: Throwing On the Towel

Serghei Tvetcov (Jelly Belly-Maxxis) has been one of the surprises of the US Pro Challenge riding third in the overall getting the better of many riders of the ProTour teams.  Jelly Belly is one of the longest continuous team sponsors in the United States giving many riders their first contracts as professional cyclist.  After today's second placing at the time he cross the line, I am sure someone from the 22 ProTour teams will be looking to sign the former Romanian Time Trial Champion.  With the cold rain and total exertion, most soigneurs wrapped their charges with a dry towel.  Once they were off of their bikes, they would be handed try jackets and warm blankets in hopes of getting their body temperatures adjusted as quickly as possible.  This is a small original watercolor and ink painting that is available through my artist website at www.greigleach.com.  To purchase this 4"x6" painting, just follow the direct link at the end of this post.
