Cavendish’s Choice for the Tour de France

Mark Cavendish of the Etixx–Quick-Step Team is racing the newly released Specialized Venge ViAS, an aerodynamic road bike that is claimed to be the fastest in the world, in Stage 2 of the 2015 Tour de France on July 5 from Utrecht to Zeeland on the North Sea in the Netherlands. The flat, 166km stage follows the opening 13.8km time trial in Utrecht and is the perfect opportunity for Cavendish, one of the greatest sprinters of all time, to not only add a 26th career Tour stage victory, but also to move into third place on the all-time Tour de France stage win list.
