Cavendish wraps up third stage win
Mark Cavendish made it a superb three-in-a-row of stage wins at this year's Tour of Ireland after sprinting home in a thrilling bunch gallop into Galway city.
Thousands lined the streets to witness the Isle of Man competitor, and four-time Tour de France stage-winner rocket past his rivals with 200m to go and claim stage win number three on the gruelling 201km circuit from Ballinrobe to Galway.
