Riding like it’s 2011

It’s like travelling back in time. Mark Cavendish (Deceuninck-Quick Step) made it three in a row today in the tenth stage of this year’s Tour de France into Valence, thereby equalling Caleb Ewan and Sam Bennett’s shared record of three consecutive King of the Sprint stages. We know, some big sprint names aren’t present or have already gone home, but still, who could have predicted this? And also, isn’t it just great?

Could Cav set a new record and win a fourth consecutive title race? We should find out quite soon.
