Bennett second behind Cavendish in final stage
The An Post Chain Reaction rider positioned himself perfectly coming into the finish, jostling with some of the world’s best sprinters to get on the back wheel of Cavendish. However, when the dash for the line opened up there was no stopping the British ace, who celebrated consecutive stage wins.
Still, 22-year-old Carrick-on-Suir rider Bennett has had a superb week, embellished by the news that he’ll represent Ireland at the World Championships this weekend in Florence.
