After the golden generation of Deignan, Thomas and Froome –What does the future hold for British cycling?

Cat Ferguson (Movistar) and Matthew Brennan (Visma-Lease A Bike) are two of the most promising riders among the new generation of British racers.

This off-season has brought a momentous change in British cycling as the last vestiges of the nation's golden era in the sport appear to have left top-level racing behind.

Geraint Thomas, 2018 Tour de France winner and double Olympic champion, has called time on a 20-year career to move into a backroom role at Ineos Grenadiers. 2015 world champion and triple Monument winner Lizzie Deignan, pregnant with her third child, has also hung up her wheels.
