Geraint Thomas feels consistency is key to fending off Primoz Roglic and Joao Almeida for Giro d'Italia win
Geraint Thomas was delighted with how he weathered an attack from Primoz Roglic on Stage 18 of the Giro d'Italia, as he protected his race lead. Roglic shipped time on Tuesday to suggest he was not at his best, but two days on, the Slovenian put his Jumbo-Visma team to work before launching an attack on the penultimate climb of the day. Ad Joao Almeida started the day in second place, but the UAE Team Emirates leader could not hold the wheel and lost time on the day.
