Before setting off on 25 laps of a 1.42-mile course, wearing No.35 as a nod to his 35 Tour De France stage wins, Cavendish was afforded a "wheel of honour" by the peloton on the start line - holding their bikes on one wheel and spinning the other.
And when it sank in that his career was over, he could not help turning on the taps.
