Manx cyclist Mark Cavendish goes for another of the sports spring classic one-day races today.
He is in Belgium for the Ghent-Wevelgem, with the cycling world still talking about last month's astonishing debut win in the Milan-San Remo in Italy.
Cavendish has already chalked up eight victories this season taking his short career tally to 36. He is now only five wins behind Chris Boardman's record of professional wins by a British rider.
Fellow Manx cyclist Jonny Bellis says Cav's form in 2009 has been awesome, with his Italian success the headline story so far:-
