Geraint Thomas Announces Retirement After 19-Year Cycling Career

The 2018 Tour de France champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist will conclude his career at the end of the 2025 season.

Geraint Thomas, one of Britain's most celebrated cyclists, will retire at the end of the 2025 season after a 19-year professional career.
Thomas won the 2018 Tour de France, becoming the first Welshman to do so, and earned two Olympic gold medals in team pursuit in 2008 and 2012.
He has achieved three podium finishes in the Tour de France, including second place in 2019 and third place in 2022, and narrowly missed a Giro d'Italia title in 2023 by just 14 seconds.
Thomas plans to target a stage win in this year’s Tour de France and will conclude his career at the Tour of Britain, potentially finishing in his hometown of Cardiff.
Post-retirement, Thomas has expressed interest in remaining involved in cycling through a role at Ineos Grenadiers or pursuing media opportunities, including his successful podcast.
