The Tour According to G My Journey to the Yellow Jersey Geraint Thomas 9781787479036 Books Reviews


  • If you are a fan of cycling, specifically the Tour, I highly recommend this book. Geraint Thomas gives an honest account of his thoughts and feelings during the 2018 tour. It's a unique perspective especially since he (GT) was initially riding for Froome. He doesn't hold back on his thoughts and feelings as the tour progressed and he was in great form. I feel as if I better understand the physical and mental demands that are placed on professional cyclists. This is a well written book.
  • This was an honest and authentic account of G's Tour de France victory. I couldn't put the, oh, so readable, account down. I was left wanting more which is a great feeling to have at the end of a book. I definitely recommend it to experienced and novice riders and sports lovers in general.
    Two thumbs up and a good old Churchill "V" for victory sign too!
  • From the crashes to the climbs G describes his thoughts feelings and logic. An excellent description of what it's like to be riding the Tour de France. Definitely read-worthy though some of the descriptions become a tad tedious otherwise I'd given 5 stars.
  • Geraint Thomas is one of the more laconic riders in the peloton. That’s not a great trait for an author. But, if you like the tour, if you are a fan of the race, you need to read this.
  • You know the outcome but it's still exciting to get G's version of what was actually going on. Easy to read & difficult to put down.
  • I really enjoy how G describes The Tour and this is a very entertaining book.
  • This is a great read for anyone who is a fan of the Tour de France
  • G's book answered things I wondered about as I watched the tour. I'm hoping for a repeat this summer!
