Cav keeps it green in Le Tour

by isleofman.com 15th July 2011

Mark Cavendish still has the points competition leader's green jersey after the 13th stage of the Tour de France today (Friday).

It was another day for the climbers but the 'Manx Missile' did contest the intermediate sprint to pick up four more points.

However, his nearest rival Rojas was a place ahead and gained a further four points for coming twelfth overall.

That all meant Cav's lead was reduced to 13 points, with the Manx rider on 264 and Rojas on 251.

Tomorrow sees the last of the big Pyrenean stages before another possible day for the sprinters on Sunday.
