*****’s chances were greatly improved when David Millar’s chain broke just as the Slipstream-Chipotle captain was stomping the pedals to counter the move.
Millar had already negated a stab by Spanish climber Fran Pérez (Caisse d’Epargne) and looked to be the strongest in the group. When he realized he had lost his chance to add a Giro stage to his wins at the Tour de France and Vuelta a España, he flung his useless bicycle over the fencing in a fit of rage.
“I was totally motivated to win the stage. All my rage just came out at the moment,” Millar told Italian TV at the line. “I will try again, not tomorrow, but in a few more days. I hope to win a stage in this Giro.”
He acted tired, fainted and then gave the crowd a hand gesture or did I read that wrong in velonews? couldn't take one pull?? NOt one?? What was the hand gesture?? Was it the finger?? I didn't really get that part so I read what I wanted into it

The hand gesture was talking about the last Russian to win a stage, that was an awesome photo BTW....I'll see if I can dig it up. I was joking about playing dirty, the guy won in a really sleazy way
Thanks. That guy most have some big balls to do that. Don't know how much class or style that has, but it sure is a statement. Italians like that passionate stuff anyway.
