Antonio Pesenti

Cycling Disciplines

Antonio Pesenti was an Italian professional road racing cyclist, born on 17 May 1908 and died on 10 June 1968. The highlight of his career was his overall win in the 1932 Giro d'Italia, the home grand tour of Italian cycling. He also placed third overall in the 1931 Tour de France and fourth overall in the 1932 Tour de France, so he finished near the top of the general classification of both the Giro and the Tour within the same two seasons. Wikipedia titles the article Antonio Pesenti (cyclist) to tell him apart from other people of the same name, and this entry rests on that article's lead section.
