While Cavendish is an extremely talented sprinter, I don't think he's such a great ambassador for the sport. He often throws temper tantrums in his races (at least, races that I saw on vs), and I saw him be very snotty with a race official before his start at the Tour of CA prologue.
He *is* a young pup and I suppose a lot of his attitude can be chalked up to his age, or lack of. Hopefully he'll mature gracefully.
