Cavendish ready to bulk up with more stage wins (Reuters)
By Martyn Herman UTRECHT, Netherlands (Reuters) – Mark Cavendish’s daughter thinks he looks skinny but the Manx Missile will be hoping to bulk up on Tour de France stage wins when the 102nd edition of the race begins on Saturday. The 30-year-old Etixx-QuickStep rider is third on the all-time list for stage wins on the Tour with 25, three behind Bernard Hinault and nine shy of the great Eddy Merckx. Talking to reporters in Utrecht on Friday, close to where Saturday’s Prologue begins in the historic Dutch city of Utrecht, Cavendish said while he wants to add to his haul he already has a career’s worth of wins, many times over.
