I've always been curious, who was the youngest, and how old was he, when he won a stage in all 3 GTs, for the record I'm not talking about the youngest rider in each GT to win a stage, I mean the youngest to have a stage win from each GT. Thanks.

In 1983, at age 23 he had a stage win in the Vuelta and the Tour.
