Band of Climbers TdF print 2017 - 1.jpgTour de France crash image available as a print
As ever, a lot of stunning photography came out of this year’s Tour de France but the image of the race has to be Chris Auld’s of the crash in the rain on Stage 2 that sent Chris Froome, Romain Bardet, Geraint Thomas and others sprawling, and it is now available as an A3 fine art print.
Auld’s pic capturing the unpredictable and occasionally out of control nature of the Tour was picked up by the likes of the BBC, CNN and L’Equipe and quickly became very famous.
It’s available to buy, printed on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag, a 308gsm, white, 100% cotton paper with a smooth surface texture, and priced £55.
The print is available from Band of Climbers.
Yes, this story is a bit of an advert, but we reckon the pic warrants it!

Wales is basically a one party state. Roll on the revolution.
You beat me to it: clearly we'd better ban all motor traffic from the motorway network, because some people drive their cars above the speed limit...
Very cruel . . . but also very funny!
Not sure about keeping motorbikes out? The ones that can actually block motorbikes are almost certainly now illegal under accessibility regs....
In Lancashire, even the MOT testing garages(link is external) can't afford MOTs! Saw it again this morning- still no MOT since 9th February
The simple truth is that what's good for you may not be good for me. I've always found Lusso's shorts to be terrific but the most comfortable by...
(for 2023 versions of value)...Exactly! When I first read the review last night I thought "that's good value", then gave myself a good slap.
He adds nothing to the debate....
Murica, f*** yeah! Why isn't this at all surprising? I guess the surprise is they didn't shoot him.
Sounds like the council's drivers / maintenance contractors - and their street designers - aren't fit for purpose......
