Mark Cavendish will have great challenges in 2016. The British rider who will wear the Team Dimension Data jersey, wants to shine at the Tour de France and some days later at the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games.
"I’m not trying just to get a place in the team. If I go to Rio, I want to get a result”, he tells the Telegraph .. "I think an Olympic medal is the only thing missing. [As a sprinter] I can’t win the Tour de France, but I’ve pretty much won everything else that I can within my physical realm."
De will be present at the next round of the Revolution Series (January 2) in his homde country. "I’ve spent a fair bit of time on the track in Manchester. We’ve done squad sessions with the team pursuit boys twice a week and I’ve done some extra sessions on my own behind the derny, but I need to balance it with my road riding."
He also unveiled part his road program. He will start in Australia at the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race. "My road season starts at the end of January, so I have to get my base miles in. From 2016, I’m a Team Dimension Data rider and that must come first."
