laurent jalabert -lrb- born november 30 , 1968 -rrb- is a french former professional road racing cyclist , from 1989 to 2002 .
affectionately known as '' `` jaja '' '' -lrb- slang for a glass of wine ; when he continued drinking wine as a professional , the nickname stuck because of the similarity to his name -rrb- , he won many one-day and stage races and was ranked number 1 in the 1990s .
although he never won the tour de france , where he suffered altitude sickness , he won the vuelta a españa in 1995 ; as well as the leader 's jersey , he won the sprinter 's jersey and climber 's jersey in the same race -- only the third rider to have done this in a grand tour .
with alessandro petacchi , eddy merckx , djamolidine abdoujaparov and mark cavendish , he is one of only five riders to win the points classification in all three grand tours .
