Wife of Mark Cavendish about the success of investigators: "No amount of time in prison can make up for what they did to us"
Other
It has been two years since Mark Cavendish and his family were robbed. The Briton was threatened with a knife, after which two watches worth £700,000 were stolen. On Wednesday, November 1, the third suspect was sentenced to 15 years in prison. However, British police are still looking for a fourth suspect, Cycling Weekly reports.
Earlier this year, two other suspects in the robbery, Romario Henry and Ali Sesayin, were sentenced to long prison sentences. For Cavendish and his family, some form of justice finally came. Although the third suspect, Jo Jobson, has now also been convicted, the fourth suspect is still missing.

The person in question is George Goddard, a man from Loughton in Essex. Chief Inspector Tony Atkin said in a statement: "We know from the evidence that four masked men entered the house with weapons. Our last suspect is still on the run, but I know the net is closing in on him. He will know and feel this too."
The preliminary conviction of three of the four suspects is little consolation for Cavendish's family. Mark Cavendish's wife Peta said: "It was harrowing, disturbing and heartbreaking for our family. I am glad that two of the people were sent to prison for a longer period of time. But whatever the punishment, every parent, I am sure, will understand that no amount of time in prison can make up for what they did to us that night."

- Somehow it has got into his mind that he is a GC rider. He is primarily a classics and stage rider who can perform on GC given his day. As a result he is wasting his time on TDF GC and once committed to GC you are too tired to do anything else.abstractengineer10-11-2026

- This is such a black eye to women's professional cyclocross if this result remains. Marie Schreiber won this race fairly. This finish is not unlike others in cyclocross. Lots of moving around to get to the finish not to cut anyone off , but to generate a sprint on soft wide tires caked with mud and sand. This is not nearly the same as a road race between two riders sprinting to the finish on faster bikes and thinner firmer tires. The powers in charge need to use some common sense, reverse this result and remember this is Cyclocross not Road racing. Unbelievable. . .Zencycle09-11-2026
