Career
editIn 2012 he won the Austrian National Time Trial Championships and in 2013 and 2014 he won the Austrian National Road Race Championships.[6] His biggest victory to date has been the 2013 Tour of Austria.[7]
Zoidl left Gourmetfein–Simplon at the end of the 2013 season, and joined Trek Factory Racing for the 2014 season.[2] He was named in the start list for the 2015 Vuelta a España.[8]
In December 2018 the CCC Team announced that they had recruited Zoidl for 2019 as a replacement for fellow Austrian Stefan Denifl, after the team and Denifl had agreed to cancel the latter's contract for personal reasons.[9] He left the team following the 2019 season, rejoining Team Felbermayr–Simplon Wels for 2020 – his third spell with the team. He joined Team Vorarlberg for the 2022 season, but signed a contract to rejoin Team Felbermayr–Simplon Wels for a fourth time, for the 2023 season.[10]
