Team Sky rider Mark Cavendish to join Omega Pharma-Quick Step

Manxman Mark Cavendish is to leave Team Sky and join Omega Pharma-QuickStep before the start of the 2013 season.
Sprinter Cavendish, 27, endured a frustrating one-year spell with the British outfit which saw him support Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins.

The 2011 world champion won 14 stages and took an overall Tour title at Sky.
