Cavendish won two stages on his way to overall victory at the Tour of Dubai last week.
Cavendish’s win at Tour de San Luis earlier this year came on the final stage, and he won again later in the 2015 Tour of Dubai in Stages one and four, as well as the overall. Check out Cavendish’s wins by clicking on the underlined text!
