Cav in emotional win

by isleofman.com 9th May 2013

Mark Cavendish has won stage six of the Giro d'Italia after a textbook two rider leadout in the final kilometer.

He dedicated his victory to the memory of Wouter Weylandt.

On the podium, the Manx Missile held up the number 108 - the race number carried by the Belgian rider when he lost his life at the race two years ago to the day.

Cav is closing in on 100 career wins - today was his 98th success since turning professional in 2007.
