It's a test of endurance as well as sprinting skills. Cavendish clearly didn't have the form to survive the Tour, he finished over 30 minutes outside the time limit, his exclusion is completely justified, irrespective of his past achievements.
Cycling is brutal like that.
Yeah you’re right. I’m just sad.
It's very saddening to see one of the greatest British cyclists of all time leave the Tour like this.
I really hope I'm wrong, but I also have a feeling that this is the last we'll see of him in the Tour.
