  • Geraint Thomas akan mengayuh sepeda 12 jam selama tiga hari berturut-turut demi memerangi Covid-19.
  • Juara Tour de France 2018 ini berharap dapat menghimpun dana 100 ribu poundsterling dalam kegiatan amalnya tersebut.
  • Geraint Thomas merasa gugup jelang penampilannya di jalanan lantaran sebelumnya tak pernah mengayuh sepeda selama 12 jam sehari. 

SKOR.id – Juara Tour de France 2018, Geraint Thomas, memiliki cara tersendiri untuk menggalang dana demi memerangi pandemi Covid-19.

Selama tiga hari berturut-turut, 15-17 April 2020, Geraint Thomas akan mengayuh sepedanya selama 12 jam dalam sehari.

Ini merupakan bentuk penghormatan Geraint Thomas untuk tenaga medis yang telah berjuang menangani pasien Covid-19 di rumah sakit dengan shift kerja 12 jam sehari.

Menurut rencana, Geraint Thomas akan memulai petualangannya itu dengan mulai mengayuh sepeda mulai pukul 07.30 pada setiap harinya.

Atlet asal Cardiff, Wales, ini pun berharap fan dan masyarakat umum merasa antusias dan ikut berpartisipasi dalam event tersebut.

“Saya ingin membantu dengan apa pun yang saya bisa. Keahlian saya adalah mengendarai sepeda, jadi cara ini yang akan saya gunakan demi memerangi pandemi Covid-19,” katanya.

Pembalap sepeda berusia 33 tahun ini berharap, kegiatan yang diadakan kali ini setidaknya dapat menggalang dana uang 100 ribu poundsterling (sekitar Rp1,9 miliar).

Thomas pun mengaku sangat gugup belakangan ini. Sebab, ia sama sekali belum pernah bersepada hingga 12 jam sehari.

Meskipun kejuaraan balap sepeda Grand Tour menempuh rute panjang, tetapi tidak ada etape balapan yang memiliki durasi hingga setengah hari.

Oleh sebab itu, pembalap tim Ineos ini memperkirakan dirinya bakal merasakan sakit di sekujur tubuh setelah menyelesaikan hari pertama, 15 April nanti.

“Kegiatan bersepeda ini akan saya siarkan langsung melalui streaming di akun facebook saya,” ia mengungkapkan.

“Saya ingin, semua orang bisa melihat betapa menderitanya saya saat mengayuh sepeda selama 12 jam,” kata Geraint Thomas.

Adapun, acara yang diprakarsai Thomas ini didukung oleh NHS Charities Together. Organisasi ini menaungi sekitar 140 badan amal.
