Cav eyes big success

Friday, 1 January 2010 03:05

Isle of Man cyclist Mark Cavendish has set himself some big targets for 2010.

After narrowly missing out in 2009, the 'Manx Missile' is aiming to win the Green Jersey at the Tour de France.

The route is more suited to the climbers, but there are several opportunities for wins on the flat in the first week.

In the past two years, Cav has become the most successful British rider ever at the event, with ten stage wins to his name.

The other big target identified by the Manx rider is to win the World Road Race Championship in September when the course in Melbourne, Australia should favour the sprinters.
