Mark Cavendish has had his fellow riders confirmed for the International Cycling Union World Championships in Melbourne.

The odds are stacked against Cav for the win due to his diminished team, this is down to a points qualification that meant only 3 of a possible nine Great Britain riders could take part.

He’ll be aided by Geraint Thomas and Jeremy Hunt.

The event runs between September 29th and October 3rd and sees the riders take on the 262km course from Melbourne to Geelong.
