Reading the web site that I just outed: http://www.giannibertoli.it/C30001.html I came across a fact that I was not at all aware of. The winner of the 1924 Giro d'Italia was born in Pittsburgh, PA: Giuseppe Enrici. The same year that Alfonsina Strada became teh first and only woman ever to compete in the Giro.
