Tao Geoghegan Hart

I'll add a caveat of 'current' professional athletes. There's plenty of past footballers who could trounce me. Although 25 year old me would have given it a damn good go.

Two posts above you, Clive.

Always cautious of links from dodgy sauces.

Lawyers, with their keen eye and close attention to detail, know this.

Tao doing an interview at the Groucho Club:

Italy’s most renowned cycling commentator has long struggled with Geoghegan Hart’s name. “‘Googanga’ he called me on Italian TV. That was just him trying to pronounce my surname. I started hearing it at races and Italians shouting it excitedly, with a real emphasis on the last ‘A.’ Now it’s the Italian way you say my name.”

Wait, they call DrDave Googanga?

Haha, I have had many nicknames but not that one. It definitely belongs to TGH!

Hi everyone. Someone told me about the pink forum and pinned thread a few days ago, thanks for all the support and especially to @Velocio for the pink header! Very kind of you all.
All the best in these bonkers times x

Amazing job! Enjoy the off season, eat all the food, and then smash it again next year!

Awesome stuff. Roll on 2021! Fingers crossed for Carapaz in the Vuelta too.

do a skid!

Well done Tao!

Top work Tao!

We are not worthy, etc.

Congratulations!

Congratulations from all of us Tao- was amazing to watch.

We’ll get the special edition cap to you.

You winning the Giro is my favourite moment of this crazy year, by a long way.

And that includes Trump losing the election!

Grinning here. Thanks Tao.
