Manxman Mark Cavendish has done it again.
He triumphed on stage eight of the Tour de France today (Saturday) – his second stage success in just four days!
It was the 23-year-old’s ninth victory of the season and the 20th on the road in just 18 months as a professional.
A searing sprint finish in Toulouse meant he became only the second British rider to win two stages of the Tour de France in the same year.
He admitted it had been a real team effort (audio file attached):
