Tom Pidcock has won Olympic titles in mountain biking, world titles in cyclocross, up Alpe d’Huez in the Tour de France, and on the gravel of Strade Bianche. But on the road at least, he’s never been as consistent as he is right now – and he’s said as much himself.

Joining Q36.5 from Ineos Grenadiers in the winter after growing unhappy and frustrated with management at the British team, Pidcock set his sights on proving that he could back up impressive performances one after the other, something he often failed to do with Ineos, even if he did demonstrate his enormous capabilities from time to time.

It’s clear that the change in team has benefited Pidcock, with the Briton winning two stages and the overall at the AlUla Tour – his first GC triumph as a pro rider – finishing second behind Tadej Pogačar at Strade Bianche, third at La Flèche Wallonne, and winning or coming close to winning stages at the Ruta Del Sol and Tirreno-Adriatico.
