Major Results (since 1996)
In 1996, the UCI started a division system for cycling teams; Rabobank became a first division team, with team code RAB. In 2002, a second professional Rabobank team was started as a third division team, with team code RB3. This third division team was filled with cyclo-cross and young talents. When the UCI division system changed in 2005, the main Rabobank cycling team (with team code RAB) became a UCI ProTeam, while the secondary team (with team code RB3) got the UCI Continental status.
Since 1996, the team won 1796 races, of which 491 were won in the (UCI) ProTour, and 362 in the cyclo-cross protour.
