Emotional career finale in Cardiff for Geraint

The 2018 Tour de France champion, who also won two Olympic gold medals on the track, had been given a given a guard of honour before the start of the final 122.2km stage - fittingly held at the Geraint Thomas National Velodrome of Wales in Newport.

Thousands of spectators lined the route to show their appreciation for the 39-year-old, as the riders headed past the local club where Thomas started cycling as a child as well as his parents’ house, with a climb of Caerphilly Mountain before finishing on North Road in central Cardiff.
