Gutted (but obviously not as gutted as him…).
Looks like garmin-sharp have dropped him last minute, would have been his last tour anyway so not a cool way to retire.

Shame. I dislike his preachy “born again anti-doper” attitude, but he’s an entertaining rider, and would’ve been good to see him turning himself inside out in pursuit of a lone stage victory!

Tom Tom sales are increasing as is the sale of black tape to cover up a trade name on a rival sat nav.

Why ? Anomalies in his passport ?

To avoid people having to fruitlessly google, might be worth pointing out that you’re referring to David Millar..

he’s tweeted that he doesn’t blame Garmin or Sharp so we can all avoid taking hammers to our hi-fi and bike computers now…

Apparently they felt he wouldn’t recover in time for the illness that stopped him in the national TT, he argues he would be fine. From a sentimental perspective it’s sad but if you’re picking the team you want the 9 riders who are on top form and sadly he may not be.
