Most times my paintings do what they should, but then there are others... this is a bit of the latter. Michal Kwiatkowski rolled off the start ramp on the coast in hopes of a strong ride. It is his ability to ride miles after miles on the front of the peloton that makes his team, Ineos-Grenadiers, so hard to keep out of a leader's jersey. I am sure he was hoping his legs would deliver that kind of a ride for some personal glory. It should be pointed out that he is a former UCI World Champion on the road yet I don't think he was one of the main contenders for the rainbow jersey in the time trial.
