Cav won his 35th Stage in the TDF that he's wanted (and we have) for so very long. True legend.

Thanks, I was gonna watch it at 7.00pm
But brilliant news, and I’m looking more forward to it now than ever

Thanks. Saved me watching todays stage!!

Maybe a clue that there was an impending spoiler would have been nice

Nonetheless, great news.

So pleased Cav's done it number 35 a brilliant sprinter. I think he will try for more this tour as there are a few sprint finals to come. Fantastic to watch.

I wasn't expecting him to do it, thought the younger sprinters would have too much for him. How wrong I was! Legend.

Thought he had missed out too late for him this year. Amazing result we have followed him for years and good on his team having faith in him.

Brilliant finish timed to perfection and all the riders pleased for him was nice to see.

Every person in the world practically who's ever followed cycle racing will surely be pleased for him - but of course a new world record to try and beat!

Mark Cavendish breaks Tour de France record for stage wins

At 39 years old - having come back from a heartbreaking crash in what was meant to be his final Tour de France, and five winless years marked by illness and injury which contributed to a diagnosis of depression - Mark Cavendish surpasses Eddy Merckx to achieve the historic milestone.

It happens regularly with Cav, as he crosses the line he just stops pedaling and the momentum of the chain jumps the sprocket.
It would be great if it happens again tomorrow with number 36

A fantastic achievement, and I can’t see it being beaten for a long time,if ever

It happens to me too (I wish) ... He dropped from 1500w to 0w at the end of his sprint which caused it the chain to drop.

It will never ever be beaten, there l’ve said it the technology and fitness levels have moved on so Cavendishes achievement is as good as written in stone.
Imagine,in a century people will still talk of him.

It was lovely to see the word LEGEND and 35 painted on the road early on for today's stage. After last year, I didn't think he would be seen again on Le Tour.
