Sad to see it end like that for , but I like a tie for the record of most stage wins of . Mark is the best sprinter in the history of road racing, zero doubt.

Eddy , the best rider ever, did it in multiple ways. That’s harder still.

The tie, at 34, is an apt way for the two hugely gifted, riders to share the honor.

(The great Peter Sagan, three times a world champion, is the next active racer with 12 stage wins. He’s retiring this year, too.)

Whether it ended with a record, a joint record with or no record, this isn’t how Mark Cavendish’s final Tour de France should have ended.

Thank you Mark . We’re proud of you and hope to see you racing again soon.

The one and only Eddy Merckx (Bel) won the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana in 1969.

@mark_l_thompson same, although infrequently. Have 1983 and 1986 bikes, do still get out on the newer one sometimes.
