Cavendish to Make Racing Return in Yorkshire
LONDON (AFP) - British rider Mark Cavendish will make his return from injury at next month's Tour de Yorkshire.
Cavendish has not raced since crashing in the final stages of Milan-San Remo last month when he broke a rib and sustained an ankle injury, forcing him to miss the Commonwealth Games in Australia.
The 32-year-old will use the Tour de Yorkshire, from May 3-6, as part of his preparations for the Tour de France, which he will start four stages wins from matching Eddy Merck's record of 34.
Another Dimension Data rider, Serge Pauwels, will return to Yorkshire to defend the title he won in 2017.
