Description:
The Tour de France is the largest sporting event, millions of people line the streets of France to see the Peloton of riders pass. Millions of people around the world watch the event on TV. Historic names like Frenchman Jacques Anquetil became the first person to win five tours, including four consecutive races from 1961 to 1964. Belgian cyclist Eddy Merckx in 1974 and Frenchman Bernard Hinault in 1985 also completed five victories. In 1986, Hinault was denied a sixth victory by American Greg LeMond, who became the first winner from outside Europe. Three years later, LeMond recorded the narrowest margin of victory, when he beat Laurent Fignon by eight seconds. Spaniard Miguel Indurain became the first winner of five consecutive tours from 1991 to 1995. His feat was surpassed by American Lance Armstrong.
Lance Armstrong on his Trek Bicycle and his U.S. Postal Team was noted for their winning Team Time Trial Results. This oil painting shows the determined faces of Lance Armstrong, and his Team Time Trial leader. The Oil Painting symbolizes the Team Time Trial Event by the tight grouping of the team, further the blue of the team jerseys melt together to signify the team as one unit working together:teamwork.
