British sprinter Mark Cavendish walks onto the stage during the official team presentation of the Tour de France cycling race in Porto Vecchio, southern Corsica island, France, Thursday June 27, 2013. The 28-year-old native of the Isle of Man, garnering him the "Manx Missile" moniker among fellow Britons and cycling buffs, is the best sprinter of his generation. Cavendish already has 23 Tour stage victories, putting him fourth on the all-time list. The race starts in Porto Vecchio on Saturday June 29, and the 198-rider peloton, or pack, is to cover 3,479 kilometers (2,162 miles) over three weeks, 21 stages and two rest days, before an unusual nighttime finish July 21 on the Champs-Elysees in Paris.
