Another sensational sprint victory saw Mark Cavendish win stage 18 of the Tour de France in Bordeaux.
The win on the 198-kilometre stage from Salies-de-Bearn was the 25-year-old Briton's fourth in the 2010 Tour and his 14th in three seasons.
Cavendish (HTC-Columbia) finished ahead of Julian Dean (Team Garmin-Transitions) and Alessandro Petacchi (Lampre-Farnese) by a margin which was so comfortable he was even able to look around before crossing the line with his arms aloft in a victory salute.
Just a short
from the sunny Brecon Beacons.

Managed to pick up said item from PRT this evening via a couple of small sherries (ok, a shitload of alcohol) and now has pride of place on the front room wall, thanks.

Glad to hear it's gone to a good home, and is out of reach of any visiting people who might try to wear it. (It might go nicely with a dayglo german helmet, for example....)
And this you can see is the bolt. The purpose of this
Is to open the breech, as you see. We can slide it
Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
They call it easing the Spring.
They call it easing the Spring: it is perfectly easy
If you have any strength in your thumb: like the bolt,
And the breech, and the cocking-piece, and the point of balance,
Which in our case we have not got; and the almond-blossom
Silent in all of the gardens and the bees going backwards and forwards,
For today we have naming of parts.
