While we are waiting for the Sandy depart....When will cav abandon?

There isn't much for cavendish in this race. Will he abandon after stage 7 or the first rest day or stage 16?

Stage 16 gives him 19 days till the world champs.

Wig Billy - a fair point. You're right. I guess I'm just being subjective!

anyone else not that impressed with Cav as a cyclist? his complete lack of ability in the mountains makes me feel that he can never be considered a great cyclist. If he hadn't come in with a bunch of others on the Tour de France, he would have been kicked out of the Tour, thus not being able to win the green jersey.

I agree, he is a great sprinter but is that really that impressive?

But he IS a sprinter, why should he be judged on his climbing ability? Cancellara also missed the time-cut twice in the Tour, are you not impressed by him either?

Distinct possibility, but he said he was too tired at the worlds last year.
