Cavendish

Great win at the Scheldeprijs for the 2005 Madison world champ.....pulling a McEwen on McEwen.

This bloke is all class....was out here last year for the Commonwealth Games riding for the Isle of Man and was showing serious abillty on road and track (won the 10 mile scratch race).....then T-Mob offered him a stagiare spot and he smoked the points jersey at the Tour of Britain.

Good on him.

So technically, if he's from the Isle of Man he's not a Pom?

Plus all the British riders cheated in the 10 mile at the Comm Games.

IIRC he was 19 (splitting hairs). He didn't cheat that time

He's a class act alright.

seeing as he's from the isle of man, wouldn't that make him a tax-dodging 'pom'?
