Tour de France / 2002
Col du Lautaret
Stage 16, Les Deux Alpes-La Plague. The peloton climbs the Col du Lautaret, beneath the Melje Glacier.

This print will take your breath away! As you watch the peloton of the Tour de France roll on high in the French Alps, you can almost feel in your lungs the thinness of the air and the slight chill that altitude brings. Cycling’s most famous photographer, Graham Watson, remembered this spot from the last time the Tour followed this route, and 15 years later climbed to the same perch for the shot of a lifetime! For fans of cycling, and for an aerial view of the the Tour during the years of Lance Armstrong domination, this is the ultimate piece for your wall. Vivid color, sharp design, awesome cycling action – a true work of art!
