Mark Cavendish: 'It's been the perfect Tour de France'

Team Sky cyclist Mark Cavendish has described this year's Tour de France as "perfect" following Bradley Wiggins's historic win.

Wiggins became the first British rider to win the race on Sunday, while teammate Chris Froome finished second overall.

To cap it all, Cavendish won the final stage on the Champs Elysees for a fourth successive time.

"It couldn't be more perfect, it has been an amazing Tour for us," he said. "It is incredible, Team Sky said the aim was to win the yellow jersey and we've done it with a one-two."

Wiggins, Cavendish and Froome are all part of the Team GB squad for the Olympic Games.
