Barton wants 'inspirational' Mark Cavendish to be recognised
A local sculptor has called for a statue of Mark Cavendish to be erected.
The Manx Missile is currently level with Eddie Merckx's Tour De France record of 34 stage wins.
Amanda Barton has immortalised Sir William Hillary, Sir Norman Wisdom, T. E. Brown, Joey Dunlop and George Formby, among others, in public art.
She says recognising Cavendish would benefit the Isle of Man:
Reservoir levels down, but water stocks relatively healthy
Manx Utilities ask people to 'please use water wisely'
Advertising board proposed for airport
Company says it would bring new income into Ronaldsway
Isle of Man reviewing self-testing cervical screening kits
Update will be provided by the next administration
