Geraint Thomas opts for Giro d’Italia return in 2023 due to “disappointing” Tour de France route The 2018 yellow jersey winner bemoaned the lack of time trial opportunities at next year’s Tour, and says he has unfinished business at the Giro cycling
“I’m not too sure why they’ve done that,” he said. “When I did my first Tour in 2007 – okay, it was a long time ago – it had two TTs of 50km plus, so it’s quite extreme to go the other way like that.
And while he remains tight-lipped about whether he will aim for the final pink jersey in Rome, the 36-year-old Welshman certainly has unfinished business at the Giro, where his two previous GC bids in 2017 and 2020 were both abruptly curtailed by freak crashes involving race motorbikes and stray water bottles.“That’s what I was thinking anyway,” Thomas said when asked if the Italian grand tour was pencilled into his diary all along.
“How I treat it would just be to get to the Giro as best I can. Whether that ends up being going for stages or riding GC, that’s a different matter. But I’d really like to do the Giro.Help us to fund our site
