[I like Skol]

There are lots and lots of Geraint Thomas wannabees out cycling around Usk in S.Wales tonight. Some of them were really really slow.
I will be joining them tomorrow morning...... Vive la Tour

I am Geraint Thomas and so is my wife

Being Welsh, he can count himself lucky his name isn't Geraint Geraint or Thomas Thomas.

I used to work with a Welsh guy whose name was John Thomas.

I used to work with a Welsh guy whose name was John Thomas.

What a plonker

What a plonker

He was actually a really nice guy.

I know at least seven people called Geriant Thomas - I even follow one on Strava (no it's not him)

This is even slower news than the yellow castle story they ran yesterday.

Whats wrong with stories claiming he owns a chimp, or he sleeps in a cryogenic chamber ?

 

[Richard A Thackeray]

What an out and out non-story. Bloke has same name as another bloke. Woo. It's not even a very unusual name.

Yes, it's well known but the guy's congratulating him on the win, rather than 'taking the teddy home'
He does state, he offer the 'tag' to SKY, but they said no keep it
