Mark Cavendish gets straight down to business when asked how the Rio Olympics compared to London four years ago.
Mark Cavendish may have gotten a lot of stick for the crash he caused in the concluding points race of the omnium at the Rio Olympics, but he finally came away with a medal from the Games.
The Manxman took silver behind Elia Viviani of Italy, with the defending champion Lasse Norman Hansen of Denmark putting up a fantastic defence of his London gold.
But while Cavendish is an oft controversial character who has little time for his rivals, he really is one of the sport’s compelling characters.
And his irreverent and droll sense of humour – mixed in with a large dose of, erm, British pride – were on show when he appeared on the Sunday Brunch BBC TV show yesterday.
He started talking about how the Rio Games compared to London 2012 and had every in stitches pretty quickly; well worth a look if you have a couple of minutes
Cav gets to the point
