Mark Cavendish (HTC-Highroad) multitasking for his tifosi... signing and posing at the same time

No sense bothering with matching shorts since we're near the end of the season when HTC-Highroad will become defunct

This shot reminds me. Mark Cavendish wanted to continued riding Specialized bikes but I guess that will not be happening now that he's officially signed for Team Sky next season. Besides, the HTC-Highroad shorts go quite well with the Rainbows.

After a 31 man got a away at km 75, 14 of them then contested a bunch sprint. Mark Cavendish abandoned around the time the main break got away.

Daniel Moreno Fernandez (Spa/Katusha) wins ahead of 2nd Greg Van Avermaet (Bel/BMC Racing Team), 3rd Luca Paolini (Ita/Katusha), 4th Thomas Voeckler (Fra/Europcar) and 5th Nicolas Roche (Ire/AG2R La Mondiale)
