Cav back in green with fourth stage win

by isleofman.com 15th July 2009

Mark Cavendish has done it again at the Tour de France!

He's won stage 11, holding off the challenges of Thor Hushovd and Tyler Farrar to take his fourth victory of the 2009 event and eighth overall at Le Tour.

He's also snatched the green jersey back from the Norwegian Hushovd, who could only finish fifth today.

And there's another reason for the Manx Missile to celebrate as he's equalled Barry Hoban as the most successful British rider ever at the Tour de France with that eighth stage win.
