He said so, yes.
But if I had just pulled the Tour de France for the better part of two weeks, I'd never even think about going with a break on my "day off". I'd sit next to Cavendish in the back of the peloton, occasionally getting some bottles from the car, but otherwise not move a finger.
Maybe he just couldn't adjust to the fact that he wouldn't be riding in the wind all day, and "fixed" that problem in his way...
