Enjoyed that.

Although IMO his comment on Veelers Is a bit harsh - Veelers was in the wrong but Cav was still a bit naughty knocking him and i dont think bringing it up again 2 years on reflects particularly well on him.

He was asked a question though Omar?

Really enjoyed that article, just assumed he was a powerful little fella so interesting to see it is more cadence and holding close to his limit rather than out and out power.

Naughty? He should have been kicked out the race.
It's one thing going shoulder to shoulder in a sprint, but shoulder barging someone who doesn't know you're there is a disgrace, I went right off Cav that day, there's simply no excuse. And, you see people going backwards through the middle every day, to suggest otherwise is bollocks.

Cav wouldn't be the most successful sprinter ever without sailing close to the wind with his tactics.
