Manx cycling star Mark Cavendish has admitted the current dispute between Tour de France organisers and the sports world governing body could seriously disrupt his season.
The row has already forced Cavendish to pull out of the Paris-Nice stage race, the traditional European season opener, after the International Cycling Union threatened bans of up to six months for competitors taking part.
Cav says if the situation remains unresolved, he may be forced to choose between Le Tour and the Beijing Olympics:-
Hockey: Under-14 boys heading to England Championship final
TT 2026: 20-year-old to make debut this summer
Hockey: Under 16 girls beaten in England Championship Semi-Final
Rugby: Island ladies selected for UK side
