In fact it's based excactly on this pic:
They are all in excactly the same position as on the cover, although a gerolsteiner rider appears to have come from nowhere, but Hunter is in there too on both cover and pic. |

You've been around the site as long as I have and you STILL haven't realised I'm hardly ever serious?
I expect that from almost everyone, but not you...

I dont think you can tell which it has been exactly. there probably are 100 pics all showing practically the same moment.
therefor, it doesnt matter anyway which particular one it has been |

Yeah, but I look at it next to my version of the cover and it's the same angle, same positions and everything. |

It is acutally the picture Maggot posted. Due to it being a painting and free hand. It will look fairly different. Most photographers probably wouldn't sell their other photos becuase this one is by far the best and will make the most money... |
