Geraint Thomas has announced that his final professional season in cycling will focus on stage racing, starting with the Tour Down Under—a place that offers ideal training conditions before major competitions.
Reflecting on his past, Thomas acknowledged that while he was once a strong contender in the Classics, the risks associated with those races have become too daunting for him at this stage of his career.
Looking ahead, Thomas expressed a desire to race one last Tour de France in what would be his 14th participation and contemplate ending his career with the Tour of Britain.
In a candid moment, Thomas remarked on the physical demands of cycling at a professional level, indicating that he no longer feels suited to handle the potential crashes prevalent in the Classics.
