The Manx Missile is now the all-time greatest stage winner
An historic 35th Tour de France stage win for Sir Mark Cavendish is "earth shattering for the Isle of Man", according to the woman who first introduced him to the sport.
Yesterday the Manx Missile became the all-time greatest stage winner at the event.
It surpasses the previous record he'd jointly held with cycling legend Eddie Merckx.
Dot Tilbury says it's an incredible achievement:
