Geraint Thomas will close his long and illustrious racing career with a farewell appearance in the 2025 men's Tour of Britain, which begins in Suffolk today. Six days of racing will take a high-quality peloton from the eastern town of Woodbridge, to the mouth of the Severn, for a final celebratory stage next Sunday in Cardiff.

For Thomas, the wheel will have turned full circle, as his final professional race takes him back to south Wales where his path to Olympic and Tour de France success began, at the Maindy velodrome. "If I didn't live so close to Maindy or if I didn't live in Cardiff, I may never have ridden a bike, never have had the career I had, the life I've had," he told the BBC.
