Tuesday 8 September 2015 18:12, UK
Team Sky celebrated their 200th win when Elia Viviani sprinted to victory on stage three of the Aviva Tour of Britain on Tuesday.
The British squad reached the landmark as they near the end of their sixth season in existence.
Here, we pick out their 10 best victories…
Bradley Wiggins, Giro d'Italia 2010, stage one
The opening-stage individual time trial at the 2010 Giro d'Italia was just a 8.4km dash around Amsterdam and had no bearing on the overall outcome of the race, but Bradley Wiggins won it to hand Team Sky their first grand tour stage victory in their very first grand tour stage.
Edvald Boasson Hagen, Tour de France 2011, stage six
Team Sky picked up their first stage victory at the Tour de France when Edvald Boasson Hagen sprinted to victory on stage six in Lisieux. The Norwegian repeated the feat in the final week of the race on stage 17 in Pinerolo.
Chris Froome, Tour de France 2012, stage seven
Team Sky began their domination of the 2012 Tour de France when Chris Froome won on stage seven's summit finish on La Planche des Belles Filles and Bradley Wiggins finished third to move into the overall race lead.
Bradley Wiggins, Tour de France 2012, stage 19
Having taken the yellow jersey on stage seven, Wiggins all but guaranteed he would become the first British winner of the Tour de France with a crushing victory on stage 19's individual time trial in Chartres, beating Froome into second place by 1min 16sec.
Mark Cavendish, Tour de France 2012, stage 20 / Bradley Wiggins, Tour de France 2012, general classification
Wiggins only needed to stay upright on the race-ending flat stage into Paris to complete overall victory at the 2012 Tour de France, but instead he opted to lead out team-mate and then world champion Mark Cavendish for a sprint victory on the Champs-Elysees. The sight of the yellow jersey leading out the rainbow jersey is arguably the most iconic image in British cycling history.
Chris Froome, Tour de France 2013, stage 14
Froome was already in the race lead by the time the 2013 Tour reached the legendary Mont Ventoux, and he proceeded to deliver what would turn out to be a decisive blow to his rivals by winning by 29 seconds. He was only the second rider in history after Eddy Merckx to win on Mont Ventoux while wearing the maillot jaune.
Chris Froome, Tour de France 2013, general classification
A year after Wiggins had made history with Britain and Team Sky's maiden Tour de France win, Froome made it two in a row by holding off a late fightback from eventual runner-up Nairo Quintana to seal a 4min 20sec overall victory.
Ian Stannard, Omloop Het Nieuwsblad 2015
The Belgian one-day classic Omloop Het Nieuwsblad is far from the most prestigious race Team Sky have won, but the manner of Ian Stannard's victory in the 2015 edition make it one of the team's best victories. Stannard was in a four-man leading group with three riders from Etixx - Quick-Step and looked heavy underdog for victory, but he turned the tables to claim a thrilling and unlikely triumph.
Chris Froome, Tour de France 2015, stage 10
In similar fashion to Mont Ventoux two years earlier, Froome was already leading the 2015 Tour de France when the race arrived at stage 10's summit finish at La Pierre-Saint-Martin in the Pyrenees, but he nevertheless obliterated his rivals to win the stage and take a giant leap towards overall victory.
Chris Froome, Tour de France 2015, general classification
If Quintana's fightback in the final week of the 2013 Tour de France had been fierce, it was even more determined two years later. With Froome suffering from illness and Quintana belatedly reaching peak form, the Briton was forced to "hang on" and eventually sealed Team Sky's third Tour de France win in four years by 1min 12sec.
