Default ex England footballer & leukaemia survivor Geoff Thomas to ride TdF'05 Route

Heard on BBC Radio 5 this morning that former England footballer, Geoff
Thomas,
who is in remission having been diagnosed with leukaemia in July 2003, is to
do a "French Revolutions" ride to raise money for leukaemia research. That
is, he will ride the entire route of this year's Tour de France, riding each
stage a few days before the pros do.

Apparently, Magnus Backstedt prepared a training schedule for him to follow
in preparation.

You can read more and sponsor him at www.geoff-thomas.com
