Turkish delight for Cavendish - again!

Tuesday, 5 May 2015 15:22

Manxman Mark Cavendish won the sprinter's jersey at the Tour of Turkey on Sunday after finishing second in the 121km final stage in Istanbul.

The 29 year-old won three of the race's eight stages throughout the week and accumulated 60 points to take home the green jersey for a second year.

‘I'm super happy with getting the green jersey at the end,’ he said.

Cavendish now plans to race the Tour of California, the Tour de Suisse and British Championships before this year's Tour de France.

The stage was comfortably won by his Etixx-Quick-Step team-mate, time trial specialist Tony Martin.
