2011 It was a huge year for Cavendish his three stage wins at the Giro dItalia and his win at Scheldeprijs were all just a warm-up for his big campaign to finally win the Points jersey at the Tour de France and despite fears that the changes to the competition would rule him out of it, he won the jersey in fine style, taking five stage wins in the process, and bringing his total number of Tour victories to twenty. That could be seen as enough for most riders but Cav was determined to go one better, and with the World Championships course perfectly suited to his skills, and Team GB taking the lead for most of the race, he was perfectly set up to become a World Champion for the third time, adding the Road jersey to his two track titles. 1st Road World Championships 1st Points competition, Tour de France 2011 1st Stages 5, 7, 11, 15 & 21, Tour de France 1st Stages 1, 10 & 12, Giro dItalia 1st Scheldeprijs 2010 The year started badly for Cavendish, after complications from dental surgery impacted on his riding, and was followed by controversies in Stage 2 of the Tour de Romandie, Stage 4 of the Tour de Suisse and the first stage of the Tour de France. But although he didnt meet his goals of the Green Jersey and the World Champion title, his results more than made up for the rest of the year, and his Vuelta wins meant he had won stages in every Grand Tour. 2nd Points competition, Tour de France 1st Stages 5, 6,11,18 & 20, Tour de France 1st Points competition, Vuelta a Espaa 1st Stages 1, 12, 13 & 18, Vuelta a Espaa Stages wins in the Tour of California, Tour de Romandie& Volta a Catalunya

2008 After starting the year winning the Madison World Champion jersey with Bradley Wiggins, Cavendish went on to show what he was capable of on the road, winning his first Grand Tour stages in the Giro dItalia and four stage at the Tour de France. He left the Tour early to race the Madison in the Olympics, but was disappointed to finish ninth.
