Poor David Millar

by Arlyn on May 15, 2008

Imagine for a moment that you’re a pro-cyclist racing in the Giro d’Italia. You’ve spent the entire day (100+ miles) in a 5-man breakaway. It’s the last kilometer of the race and it looks like you’ve got the best legs.

Then your chain breaks. Poor David Millar.

Is he throwing his bike over the railing?

yeah, he chucked it over the railing. I don’t blame him for being pissed.

Notice it say “Ultimo Chilometro” – Oh, that has to burn.

That does suck. I need to find this video… so I can watch it as it unfolded. I’ve read so much about it on cycling news, etc. He was doing so well. The good news is… Millar will rebound.

@Donald: I watched the video on cycling.tv, but I’m guessing Versus will replay this moment when they do their Giro coverage on Sunday
