Bradley Wiggins: "I imagine there will be no shortage of teams that would want Cavendish in their team"
Cycling
Bradley Wiggins has once again come to support Mark Cavendish. When Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl announced their team for the tour, Cavendish was missing from the list, and now Patrick Lefevere surprised everyone with Cavendish's departure from the team.
Bradley Wiggins and Matt Stephens were discussing Cavendish’s future following the announcement of his departure by the team by general manager Patrick Lefevere." I imagine there will be no shortage of teams that would want that or that would see a place for Mark in their team," said Wiggins.
When asked about which team will be perfect for him, he said, “Well, he's still got ambitions for himself, The one I thought was TotalEnergies, Because of the Specialized link.With Edvald there,Niki Terpstra, Daniel Oss. Lots of good lead outriders. It'd be interesting.”
Cavendish made history when he secured four stage victories last year making his total stage wins in the tour to 34. His dream of breaking the record was shattered after he was left out of the Quick-Step team.

- Yes, Roglic could theoretically have beaten Sepp. Jonas must have had complete confidence that he could come back and win the Vuelta another year. Visma had not allowed Roglic to ride the Tour that year, so his future did not look so bright, despite his narrow Giro win..Hills3315-11-2026
- So far, a good series about riders before my time, even if the text feels AI generated like so much on this site. About the rider, he seems like one of many who are active fan favorites but don’t survive in the stories of cycling, a few decades later - I didn’t really know anything about him and this was a good read, thank you!RidesHills15-11-2026
- A calm, honest documentary, a bit of hagiography but mostly not too much. When he talks about a coffee shop, it aligns with several things in his world - he might want calm, but he does (more than a little bit) have someone near him (his fiancee) who makes sure that things happen the way he expects. Many atheletes have retired only to find out just how much others were taking care of their lives for them. If they work out (I'm old, things happen), I am sure it will take a renegotiation, which is a good thing. I truly enjoyed watching it, seeing him, seeing her, seeing the whole system built around him.RidesHills15-11-2026
- You do? My mother grew up around Bleiburg (Pliberk), across the border in Austria . My grandparents lived close to the train station in Bleiburg, and I spent a lot of the 70s and 80s there. The "Jugo" train of my youth went to Dravograd or Maribor, exotic places (behind the wall) at the time. What a moment that was, the 10 days war of '91 - times sure have changed.RidesHills15-11-2026

- b.s. headline. Jonas wasn't told anything, it is just a pundit telling him what to do. the actual article is not even close to the insinuation of the headline.mij15-11-2026
- I think Roglic could have beaten Sepp. not Jonas. I was referring to Sepp.mij15-11-2026
- I'm deeply sick of this guy and his unwillingness to race seriously for more than a month or two. I'll never respect riders who do that. Seixas will be stronger than him next season, and maybe Del Toro as well. I don't even think he'll finish on the podium at any GT where Pogi, Seixas, and Del Toro are racing.megasmacky15-11-2026
