Millar will get more exposure for Slipstream by that single act than probably anything else they do in the Giro from here on. From a marketing standpoint it was sheer genius, although surely unintentional genius. Maybe he's an idiot savant  |

if the bike went over a cliff and is broken, they should definitely recover it, and do something with it. Perhaps have raffle it for their members on their mailing list. Their mailing list will see a jump to 10000 overnight. |

That is so unlucky, chain snap with 1k to go. Really not surprised that he was so pissed off...

Reminds me of when he dropped his chain on the TDF prologue and ended up coming in second .12 seconds behind first... But i don't think he had this one in the bag. |

Millar has a history of mechanicals. Maybe he treats his mechanics badly.

Re: Giro D'Italia 2008 : Stage 5 - Wednesday, May 14: Belvedere Marittimo - Contursi
Is there a reason why Millar is listed at 119th position in the results table in spite of supposedly finishing 0.25 s after Brutt?
 I'm really confused by this. |

relegated to the the time of the second bunch but kept his actual position over the line as team cars couldnt come up to him until almost all riders passed through. He needed a bike to finish. |
