\n No team had ever won all three points jerseys across the Giro d’Italia, Tour de France and Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a\n <\/p>\n

Three Grand Tours. Three points jerseys. One team. In the LONG history of road cycling, no one has ever accomplished what Lidl-Trek just has behind the powerful legs of Mads Pedersen and Jonathan Milan. The feat is a testament to the awe-inspiring power of teamwork. Two singular talents were shepherded through narrow roadways, mountains walled with fans, and chaotic bunches of fearsome would-be winning sprint trains. Obtaining the trifecta was Lidl-Trek\u2019s plan from the grueling days of winter training camp. They absolutely smashed it. Chapeau Mads, Jonny, and everyone involved in a historic effort.\u00a0<\/p>\n
