Tommaso Omobono Tenni was born on 24 July 1905 and died on 1 July 1948. An Italian motorcycle road racer, he was nicknamed the Black Devil and won the Grand Prix motorcycle European championship twice. Racing for the Moto Guzzi factory from 1933 until 1948, he collected 47 victories, which made him one of the most successful Italian riders of the pre-war and immediate post-war years. His career ended in 1948 when he was killed in an accident during practice for the Bern Grand Prix, only weeks before his forty-third birthday, while still riding at the top level of the sport.
