IG Pro Cycling Index: Cavendish up to 3rd

Mark Cavendish surprised many last week in winning his first stage race in his career. The Ster ZLM Tour is a four-day stage race in Holland that is ranked Tier 3 in the Pro Cycling Index alongside races like the Tour of Qatar and Tour of Britain. Even more surprisingly Cavendish did so without winning a stage of the race. Instead he finished in the top three on three occasions and kept in the front groups when the race split up.
