the Tour of Britain

.

acrylic on paper 7x10" sold
.
stage 3 of the Tour of Britain came through
our hometown of Llandrindod Wells,
the typical Welsh weather...bad!
made the climb up the Black Mountains an epic
and the steep wet cobbled Constitution Hill in Swansea
was as good as any Alp d'Heuz
.
here is Michael Albasini from HTC Columbia
conquering the hill,the weather and everybody else
.

Lovely! It's a pity the TDF gets most of the attention, but cycling through Britain must be amazing.....and at this time of the year, the colours, the sky and the green fields must be breathtaking. I look forward to seeing more paintings!
