Stage 2 of the Tour de France was always going to be an Everest of a challenge for Mark Cavendish to be able to retain the yellow jersey of race leader. Although able to produce pure sprinter power, Cavendish carries more muscle bulk than most. This means that when the road tilts up, it is watts per kilo that make all the difference as we saw all too clearly in stage 2.
