Mark Cavendish has won the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award 2011, the Manx sprinter receiving his gong at a lustrous, mob-handed, sweepingly grand ceremony at the BBC's new MediaCity nfl jerseys cheap HQ in Salford Quays. In a sense this was also a sporting housewarming for the corporation, the first of its annual awards ceremonies to be staged in this new-build field of broadcasting dreams, a glass and steel waterside metropolis ranged excitingly behind its sweeping concrete piazza.

Cavendish is a fitting winner for a new era, the award cheap nba jerseys recognition of his outstanding achievements this year, which include including taking the green jersey at the Tour de France and winning the Road World Championships. "I'm absolutely speechless," he said on receiving his prize at the tail end of a bravura ceremony. "It's been such an incredible year for British sport, that we can produce such champions from such a small place is incredible."

The award is also, no doubt incidentally, a celebration of Cavendish's exuberant personality: this is not, repeat not, Nigel Mansell on a bike. Instead Cavendish is an eminently quotable champion, spikily eloquent, staunchly nonconformist and possessed of a former glamour model girlfriend. His victory here adds another strand to the emergence cheap NHL Jerseys
of British cycling from minor sport to well-resourced middleweight status. London 2012, with Cavendish to the fore, could be decisive moment of elevation for a sport that has for so long lurked energetically on the fringes.

Second place in the public vote went to Darren Clarke, The Open champion. Mo Farah, the world 5,000-metre champion finished third. Earlier in the evening England's cricketers were worthy winners of team of the year, reward for a sleekly irresistible first Ashes triumph on Australian soil in 24 years.

Andrew Strauss's men also provided the evening with a cheap mlb caps degree of paparazzi-friendly A-list heft: the shrillest cheers of the evening on the red carpet outside MediaCity were reserved for Alastair Cook, emerging swooningly tuxedoed from his vast limousine. Andy Flower was named coach of the year and received his award with the usual poker-faced mask of squinting ambiguity, making a slightly frightening speech about "pressure … hard decisions … performing when you're up against it".

There was also the superfluity of yet another award for Sir Steven Redgrave, former BBC sports personality award winner and also (albeit often overlooked) Celebrity Gladiators champion 1996. In the event, Redgrave's lifetime achievement gong was one of the high points of the night, handed over by pretty much every person he's ever got into a boat with plus her royal sporting eminence Princess Anne. "It's been a pleasure to give him one or two awards over the course of time," the Princess Royal noted archly, also tipping her coiffured crown to Redgrave's apparent influence in helping to secure London 2012.
