Geraint Thomas wins the 2015 E3 Harelbeke
In-form Welshman Geraint Thomas has moved up to second spot in the UCI WorldTour ranking after winning Friday's E3 Harelbeke and placing third at Ghent-Wevelgem on Sunday.
Thomas now sits behind Sky team-mate Richie Porte in the ranking, after the Australian strengthened his lead with an overall victory in the Volta a Catalunya on Sunday. Previously, Porte won Paris-Nice in March and placed second in the Tour Down Under in January.
