Pleased to help spread the passion of cycling, we will now be selling the artwork of Jeff Parr, a fellow cycle enthusiast. Parr incorporates his love of cycling and cycle racing in a variety of contemporary oil paintings. We will be offering his most recent work which features Mark Cavendish the winner of the World Road Race Championship in Coopenhagen in 2011 – rumour has it that Mark was so pleased with the painting that he has ordered several for his family and friends. The painting is entitled, “The Wait is Over” and is meant to commemorate Cavendish’s brilliant victory in the cycling race. These limited edition prints are available in size 30cms x 45cms priced at £18 each + £2.50 UK P&P. Keep the pride and joy of cycling alive with Parr’s beautiful print!
