Cav nees to kick start his season on this one. It's a short prologue which he could do well in, followed by a sprinter's stage so it's not inconceivable that he could be in the leader's jersey.

Flying_Monkey said:Agreed - a great result! And nice to see Ben Swift up there in 9th too - he is potentially Britain's Sagan, a tough all-rounder who can sprint.
Cav is really not with it right now. He may yet be ready for the TdF, but I wouldn't be surprised if he has already thought about writing this season off and concentrating on the longer-term.
raindog said:Thanks for that link rich. Great interview and it's good to see behind the scenes sometimes. Amazing how much the personal life of an athlete can affect performance one way or another.
Let's hope he peaks for the Tour. A good stage win in California would do him a world of good.
