Mark Cavendish wins, London-Surrey Cycle Classic 2011

Britain qualified for eight places in the men's road race event, and Cavendish is spearheading the country's bid for the world title. He will be backed by one of the strongest British squads ever seen at the championships on a course that suits the Manxman's explosive sprint finish.

Nigel Wynn
Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
