Summary

We've partnered with BrewDog for January to help bring some balance to our GTCC members. You can get 15% off BrewDog's alcohol free range by visiting: https://brewdog.com/collections/geraint-thomas-cycling-club We thought it was about time we welcomed another Tour de France winner to the GTCC... Come on in, Demi Vollering! The Dutch superstar came within an agonising four seconds of retaining her TDFF crown this summer, but she'll return to the race in 2025 as the hot favourite on her new team, FDJ-Suez. Demi joined us from training camp and was open and honest about her tumultuous 2024, the crash that defined last year's Tour, and her plans for the future. It's fair to say, G and Tom were big fans. Meanwhile G's been battling hard against a bout of illness in Australia, but remains in good spirits. To be fair, who wouldn't be spending January in Adelaide. It's the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race next up for him. Who else would you like to hear from on the GTCC? Let us know by emailing [email protected]. We are also very excited to confirm that our ROUVY rides are back for 2025. Come and join the fun every Wednesday at 18:30 UK time. You can sign up for tomorrow's ride (29th January) by clicking here. And if you haven't signed up for ROUVY yet, use the code GTCC1M for a free month on us. See you next week.
