    Is Mark Cavendish the greatest British rider of all time? 👑

      Definitely. How he hasn’t received a knighthood yet is beyond belief

      One of the greatest sprinter for sure, especially with his renaissance in those past recent years.
      It was sometimes painful to see him ride until he went back winning with the Quickstep.
      He has evolved a lot as a person & a rider, and clearly deserve more than ever respect today for all he has gone through and done.

      He's a champion, but not a sportsman. He can't handle a loss without acting like a kid that just threw his rattle out of the cot.

      Probably, but there are others : Chris Froome, Sir Chris Hoy, Bradley Wiggins, and Tom Pidcock. He's the greatest sprinter that is for sure and an endearing character who never gives anything but his best. For me Pidcock is the next greatest for the Gold in Olympics MTB and his achievements in cross and road. But I am heavily biased toward the rough stuff :) and the Classics.

    Every lap I thought: “surely Cav won’t be able to hang with them this time round”. And every single time, he managed to pull it back. Even with all the antics and riders not wanting to drag him to the line, he managed it perfectly for someone that rarely gets that opportunity. This was the most masterful ride I’ve seen from a pure sprinter. Somehow at age 37 he got me out of my seat screaming in a way I never thought I would. An absolute shame if he’s left out of the tour.

      Absolutely masterful! And the fact that he managed to put himself up the road while his biggest rivals from INEOS, FDJ, and the other WT teams were chasing his breakaway... that's a role reversal you don't see very often!

    Crazy seeing this finish - Cavendish isn't even in sprint mode, looks back, and slows down to not make the others look too bad.

    • @monument_hq
      @monument_hq  2 роки тому +2

      It's crazy, isn't it?! And these are two really good pro riders - Watson is an up and coming FDJ rider and Richardson was Alpecin-Fenix last year... Cavendish is just another level.

      Alex is a great guy! He's been a supporter of our local races for years, and a few of us spent some time racing with him -to see where he is now is awesome!

    Gr8 2 👀👀👀 Mark Cavendish win the UK Road Race after his battle a few yrs back . He was fabulous at laat yrs TdeF . Can't understand why his Team didn't pick him 4 this yrs TdeF 2022 edition. Could it be his bad behavior in the last day or 2 of last yrs race ... any Bodies guess .

      My thinking is they want 2 preserve his & leave him level pegging.
      In SPORT these days there could be some back room conversations going on , u just don't know . Why wouldn't his team wait untill the UK National Road Race 2 be completed b4 making such an announcement. Seems very 🐟🐟🐠🐡🐋🐳 2me
