Geraint Thomas returns to the Road World Championships Individual Time Trial on Friday feeling upbeat and confident and with what he sees as a rare chance to perform at his full potential.
Thomas’ previous Worlds TT participation in Imola in 2020 saw him take fourth on a much shorter, hillier course than in Stirling and was overshadowed by the issue of a misplaced Garmin on his TT bike which left him riding blind, power-wise, and wondering what he might have achieved had he been able to guide his effort with live data.
