'He lifts the team' – The Tom Pidcock effect at Q36.5 Pro Cycling

It's not every day that an Olympic champion, Tour de France stage winner and Classics specialist, in the prime of his career, makes a surprise move out of the WorldTour and into a barely two-year-old ProTeam. But that's exactly what Tom Pidcock did with his late move to Q36.5 Pro Cycling last winter.

Fast forward to April, and the surprising move is proving extremely successful for team and rider alike. The team have won seven times so far in 2025 – four of those being Pidcock victories – already surpassing their 2024 tally, and easily their best season start since Doug Ryder re-founded the team in 2023.
