For non-cycling fans, this is like Bonds breaking the HR record or Lebron breaking the NBA points record. Cavendish has now won 35 Tour de France stages, more than Eddy Merckx, one of the greatest cyclists of all time.

Also this is a record that is going to be really hard to beat. The active rider with the most now is Tadej Pogacar with 12. He actually has a decent shot if he stays healthy since he is so versatile and young. But he's probably the only threat.

Contextualizing this as like Eliud Kipchoge winning Boston 5 (10?) years in a row.
