Cycling Legend Mark Cavendish to Retire After Singapore Race

The 39-year-old British cyclist will conclude his illustrious career at the Tour de France Criterium in November.

  • Mark Cavendish, known as the 'Manx Missile', will race for the last time at the Singapore Tour de France Criterium on November 9-10.
  • With a record 35 stage wins at the Tour de France, Cavendish has not competed since reaching this milestone in July.
  • His career highlights include 165 stage victories, a silver medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics, and three world titles in Madison.
  • Cavendish postponed his initial retirement plan after a crash at last year's Tour de France.
  • The Singapore race is not a UCI event, meaning its results will not be added to Cavendish's official record.
