All I can say is WOW, David! You are my hero. I know that for someone like you anything less than winning is not good enough but I was so proud to see you grinding away in those last few kilometers that I was shouting at the TV and willing strengh into your legs. Amazing job!

I for one am rooting for Team Argyle!

SSSSOOOOOOO PROUD of the Argyle today!!!!!!!!!

Keep it Boyz, I can smell the yellow Jersey here in Denver.

I was cheering you on through the TV, David! Thanks for the ride today – it was great fun to watch.

When it’s time to grind the grain, go to the MILLAR!
Congratulations on your red flag, that was an awesome ride. The peloton will feel that chase tomorrow for sure.

What a day! Amazing effort, don’t feel bad you didn’t hold off the bunch. A proud day for Garmin regardless!

You are the best. No question about it. Keep going and show them what a Garmin riders are made of.

Dave – Have never been more proud to be a fan of you and Team Garmin than today. You are a great rider and role model. For what it is worth my Kazakh son is now routing for Garmin. Go Argyle!

heartbreaking – again.

AWESOME! Great ride David! You gave it your all and it was impressive to watch.

Team Argyle AKA The Clean Team

That was awesome!

I’m bummed out about it, but still it was a fantastic ride. You’re still #1 to me David. Thanks for the inspiration!

So close…
It was great to see that a clean rider can make
With you and your team it’s a new Tour de France
Thanks for all you do for this sport
You are a giant, you are the King David, it was Millar time today

Dave, that was amazing. I was shouting at my TV for that whole time. I’ll bet if they caught Voeckler yesterday you would’ve been the winner. Great, great ride. WOW!

Dave, you deserved that mate! Chapeau!

Exciting ride.

That was nothing short of amazing, David. Your performance today was the epitome of why cycling is beautiful.

I hate cliches, but yeah, those pictures are both worth thousands of words. Great ride David! I’m so proud of you guys and you’ve been the highlight of the Tour.

what a ballsy ride… congrats mr. millar, you had my heart beating at its own, weak maximum capacity during the final twenty k… well done!

allez argyle!

Bravo David, that was an awesome ride and we’re all so glad to see you back at the top of your form. I wish my own healing collarbone would give me wings like you had today!

Truly Inspirational. What a great ride.

Great go of it David! – What a gutsy ride.

Rest well tonight.

Hell of a ride, David! Fantastic effort.

Great ride mate! The Garmin Guys are really showing some class. You all are on the cusp of a stage victory and if everything aligned properly, even perhaps the yellow jersey. Keep working hard and pulling for eachother and it will eventually come.

All in good time. Magnificent ride today.

The TTT showed you guys are in shape. Can’t wait for the mountains, but what was that thing on Millars helmet?

Congratulations David! What a ride.

David you have my respect.

Great effort by the team so far in the tour but today was the best yet, as a Scot I was particularly chuffed to see Dave giving it his all, good on you loon . Shame he did not make it all the way to the line but thrilling and great entertainment. Looking forward to further argyle adventures as the tour goes on.

guts! nice ride.

An amazing effort, David. I can’t wait to watch it tonight!

WOW what a ride! The short for of the team name id GRM. I think that stands for “Great Ride Millar”.

Once again, Well done David!

Damn!!!

So close, but what an awesome ride nonetheless. Made for each of the seat – and shouting at the telly – viewing.

Good on yer Dave – have another dig sometime soon!

Anthony C Lincolnshire England

What a stage Dave – Chapeau!

Beautiful gutsy, gritty ride! Where did you get those awesome tall black socks?

Amazing ride! I’ve been a Vande Velde fan for years, now I’m a Millar fan too! Lance who?

Go argyle!

Great EFFORT … Incrededible TOUGHNESS … Fantastic RIDE … Way to lead DAVID … What a stage!

What David Millar did today is the epitome of why cycling is such a beautiful sport!

Watching you lead out on the Champs Elysee last year – the look of determination on your face – I finally realised what it is to be a dedicated, determined sportsman.
Congratulations on the ride today – showing the way to ride from your home town, you will suceed on this tour.
See you in Paris on the 26th leading from the front – your fan club will be there.

David, you rode heroically today. If I were to describe to some one why I love the sport of cycling I would only need to speak of your ride. You have made your team your country and the sport of cycling proud.

Great job David! That was an awsome ride. Go Argyle

Holy Crap! My heart was in my throat for the last 30 minutes of the race. What a great attack. I thought you had it won–I really did.

Going to wear my Argyle Kit with pride this weekend.

Great Job David–you made the race happen today!!

one word: NICE!

Well done matey, we really enjoyed that. Hope you did too, even if it didn’t quite have the right result. Must have been extraordinary riding on your own into Barcelona like that.

Quite simply a sensational ride. Absolutely inspirational. Hope you can go for it again.

I salute you David, your ride was heroic. I’ll keep cheering the Argyle, you never give up.

Straight up Bad Ass today. That was fun

Very impressive David. A spectacular physical and mental accomplishment. Congratulations.

Wow….you should have seen the people at work looking at me goofy because I was jumping, yelling and cheering for David while watching the live video feed from work. Unbelievable…..wish the gap would have stuck!

Way to go, David! You do our people proud!

man… that was so good, I was hoipeng to see the Golden Garmin today

Awesome! I was screaming at my monitor and cheering for you the whole way!! You guys are awesome! That was such a great stage to watch!

thank you… great effort… what a thrill… proud to be a fan!

Outstanding ride. Hope to see you in the Col de Romme and at the Grand Bornand (or next day in Annecy). I’ll have my IMT shirt!!

Congratulations. Well done

Bob.

Congratulations, David – it’s performances like your’s that make the Tour what it is! Better luck next time…

I told my fellow cyclist and colleague that Garmin would be in the thick of the action being in Girona so was not surprised to see Argyle in the break. When I saw who it was I expected a Voeckler style attack before the finish and my 2 hour drive home was peppered with phone calls (hands free) for updates. I was cheering in the car and got home 2 Km before David was caught.

What a totally stylish and classy ride David, chapeau!

That stage win for the team is not far away.

Great Ride David. Your attack made my day.

Du grand David Millar, et rassuré vous je suis sur que le tour vous a pardonner et que bientot vous allez l’avoir votre victoire. On croit tous en vous . Bonne chance

you are rescuing cycling.

Voeckler’s ride pales into insignificance – he went from much further down on GC, with way better prospects and no top 10 place to risk. Superb effort (AGAIN) David.

All the best for the lumpy bits over the next few days.
G

That was outstanding – what a show of courage. Can’t wait to read your next diary!

Winning is nice, but giving your all, unsure of the outcome, is beautiful. You did that. Garmin do that. In that sense, you are winners. Chapeau!

David — Bravo! Chapeau! Thank you for being the most colorful rider in the peloton. But who’s idea was it to put the radios on your helmets? Dorky!

I wonder if an AR frame would have made the difference vs F1
