His remarkable accomplishments include winning the prestigious Tour de France - Giro d'Italia double three times in 1970,1972, and 1974. In addition to that feat, he also clinched the Giro d'Italia - Vuelta a España double in 1973.

Among these triumphs are six stages won in both 1969 and 1972 and eight stages conquered in both 1970 and 1974.
