Thibau Nys may be focussed on the cyclocross season now but the 21-year-old's road ambitions aren't fading far into the background, with Lidl-Trek announcing that the versatile rider has signed on for another three years with the WorldTour team.

The under 23 cyclocross world champion was with the Baloise Trek Lions on the dirt before joining Trek on the road as well, first as a trainee in 2022 and then becoming a part of the WorldTour squad in 2023.
