Thanks Rich ... yeah - he does the IoM proud...some pace on the boy still, he destroyed that field today.

Yep Chapeau to Mark - I'm afraid I have to count myself as one of the people who thought that ship had sailed.
I couldn't be happier to be wrong.
Hopefully he can find a bit of peace with it all now. That said I just read an interview with GT who said " you don't need to keep risking your neck - just park the bike and walk away" - Cav not having any of it - wants more wins! Still a racer at heart.

Well done Sir Mark!! Yes a fantastic achievement that crashes and illness made all the more difficult.
Watched it yesterday and he certainly made a fool of those who said he was no longer the fastest in the peloton and that the ship had sailed.

Great to see, he were quite humble in the interviews after, which was nice to see.Sent
He could retire with his head held high but I suspect he's not done yet.

It's a great shame the Olympics have prevented the ceremonial final stage in Paris this year, that would have been a fitting tribute to the greatest sprinter of all time.
