Geraint Thomas is one of the kindest, most generous people in cycling, full stop. I first met him on the streets of Paris after the finish of the 2021 Tour de France. He stopped by to say hello to me, Richard Moore, and Francois Thomazeau as we ate dinner. He had a nice chat with us as people, not as the press, asked us what we were eating (and drinking), introduced his wife and kid, complained about his soreness and told us he was looking forward to watching Netflix all day when he got home. He didn’t have to do that. Most riders wouldn’t. It is a testimony to his generosity that Thomas is free with his opinions, with his time. His press conferences, those nasty formalities, go long.
