On 21 August 2022, the Vuelta passed through and past Breda. It became a 100-day celebration in which the bicycle was the main focus. To create a lasting memory of this event, illustrator and artist Daan Botlek made this mural.

A peloton of cyclists can be seen on both sides of the tunnel, with colours inspired by the different jerseys awarded during the Vuelta.

‘Man is the measure of all things’: deze uitspraak van Protagoras staat centraal in het werk van de Rotterdamse kunstenaar en illustrator Daan Botlek. Je kunt zijn werk herkennen aan ongewone en dubbelzinnige geometrische creaties, die meestal uit eenvoudige mensfiguren bestaan.
