itself, the format for the evening was very relaxed and hosts Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Orla Chennaoui began with an assessment of this year&#8217;s cycling.<br \/>\nThey read extracts from their upcoming book and\u00a0discussed the Giro D&#8217;Italia and the abuse they received on social media for their coverage of the Giro\u2019s start in Israel.\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\nMoore said although they had tried to be as even handed as possible, this had done nothing to stop abusive comments from both sides of the Palestine-Israel debate.<br \/>\nThey then moved on to Simon Yate\u2019s misfortune at the Giro, and ultimate redemption at the Vuelta a Espana.<br \/>\nA member of the audience asked if the hosts thought Grand Tour winners need a ruthless streak.<br \/>\nThis led them onto Thomas&#8217;s unforeseen Tour de France victory this summer which Moore had previously described as &#8220;fanciful&#8221;.\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\nApparently, Thomas listened to the podcast and was not particularly impressed with that assessment.<br \/>\n\u201cI did notice Geraint stopped following me on Twitter after the Tour,\u201d Moore laughed.<br \/>\nHe explained that before the Tour he simply didn&#8217;t think Thomas had that ruthless nature.<br \/>\n\u201cI just thought that Geraint was too nice to win the tour,\u201d<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0he said.<\/span><br \/>\nOrla Chennaoui agreed: \u201cI think we all expected the Geraint Thomas bad luck to kick in at some point.\u201d\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\nIn the event they were both wrong and Thomas became the first Welshman to win the Tour.<br \/>\nThe crowd seemed to enjoy the evening and the Q and A section of the night was very lively with a wide array of questions from \u201cis cycling more beautiful than rhythmic gymnastics\u201d to \u201cwhat do you think of the Bradley Wiggins affair?\u201d\u00a0<span
