My favourite bit in that initial clip is at about 1:55 - the 2010 finish where the leaders are giving it their all, and then Cav appears to just cruise past them in the background! The

Yeah, it's amazing.

The sprint from Cav at the beginning... just disgustingly fast!

I think this one is better! (start at 1:55)

That's insane. How fast do you think he was going at peak speed? 45-47mph?

I actually think that the 2012 stage 20 win was the best, The Yellow Jersey, Wiggins, leading the peloton onto the Champs Elysee with Edvald Bosan Hagan and Cavendish on his wheel for the win.

Looking forward to watching the action in Yorkshire soon.. Live from the roadside of course!

That was all a little processional to me.

I think for may favourite one (2010 Champs Elyses) it was at least in part because of the camera angle - he just came zooming out of nowhere...

TdF 2010 Stage 20 is a very good sprint but Cav was always there or there abouts. What really gets me with the TdF 2012 Stage 18 is that Cav comes from no where to completely dominate the sprint.

This thread is really the Cavendish Appreciation Society, isn't it!

He's the man!

I doubt if he could have beaten Beryl Burton though.

 

[zizou]

In 2009 he should really have got a time gap he was that far ahead...Renshaw still managed to finish second after easing up after the leadout

Or @postman on Picolax.

Here's a revived thread on laxatives found on Single Track World.

Hope this forewarns you Postie, of the turn of speed needed to avoid disaster.

I look forward to your account of your sprints to victory.

Sleep well tonight to conserve energy.
