Having missed out on a gold medal at Beijing 2008, Mark Cavendish is doing his best to qualify to ride on the track at Rio 2016 and beat his Olympic medal drought.
The Manxman was the only member of the Team GB track team not to come back from Beijing with a medal and his return to the track with the Great British Cycling Team in Derby this weekend brought back memories of seven years ago as he teamed up with Sir Bradley Wiggins in the Madison again.
The duo clicked immediately and won the Madison race and Cavendish finished second to Ed Clancy in the omnium - the race Cavendish may be targeting in Rio.
Photographer Andy Jones was trackside at the Revolution Series in Derby and snapped these great pictures of Cavendish in action.
