EVENT DESCRIPTION
Geraint Thomas needs little introduction, as a 2018 Tour de France winner and double Olympic Champion! It’s also his personality off the bike which has made G such a loveable sporting star, and now he’s spearheading a Trust to help provide more young people with access and opportunities to the sport which has given him so much.

Set-up in 2021, the Geraint Thomas Cycling Trust (GTCT) is here so that ‘Every Young Person can enjoy the spirit of cycling by participating in cycling regardless of their individual circumstances.’ There are still many barriers preventing young people from taking part in cycling. These include the affordability of bikes, skills to repair bikes, basic safety equipment, safe storage, knowledge of how to ride safely and accessibility to opportunities to ride, but this is where the GTCT is looking to provide assistance.
This ride is supported by Cycle Solutions, Gold level partners of the Geraint Thomas Cycling Trust and the one stop shop for all your cycling needs. Cycle Solutions are one of the fastest growing cycling retailers in the UK and are run by riders of all disciplines. From their beginnings as an independent bike shop, they are now a recognised nationwide retailer and while they keep their values from their local bike shop days, they are quickly becoming one of the most trusted cycling retailers in the market.

The Route

Released with Zwift’s France map for the first-ever Virtual Tour de France, Roule Ma Poule is essentially the reverse version of the Casse-Pattes route, covering the full outer loop in a counter-clockwise direction with a different start/finish location atop the Petit KOM.
