Geraint Thomas, 22, from Cardiff Still only 22 years old, Thomas is already a double world and Olympic champion in the team pursuit on the track. In 2007 he became the first Welshman to complete the Tour de France in 40 years - and the youngest rider in the race that year - and in June this year he completed the Giro d'Italia. At the World Cup in Manchester, the man with no spleen - it was removed after a training accident in Australia in 2005 - will be riding the scratch race and will partner Bradley Wiggins in the madison. "The madison has always been an afterthought to the team pursuit. It's always been 'Go on G, rock up and do this race for us', but it's something I want to ride a lot more, especially up to London 2012," he says.
