Toms
Skujins
Toms is the beating heart of Lidl-Trek. He's a selfless, upbeat and full-gas racer who has racked up 12 wins through the course of his career, including a universally-loved celebration at the Tour of California. In 2023, he won his sixth Latvian national title in the men's individual time trial, and spent a whopping 805 kilometers hunting for a stage win in breakaways at the Giro d'Italia, where he had second-, third-, sixth- and seventh-place stage finishes. He is a consummate racer and road captain, and an excellent representative of Lidl-Trek's values.
