Giuseppe Azzini

Giuseppe Azzini was an Italian racing cyclist. He won two stages of the 1913 Giro d'Italia and finished third overall.

Career
Azzini's best race of his career was the 1913 Giro d'Italia. The following year he tried to repeat his performance. He achieved two stage wins in a row and a day in the race lead. In the final kilometres of the sixth stage Azzini disappeared. The organisers sent search parties out looking for the following day and he was found sleeping in a barn. That was his race over. 90 percent of the riders who started the Giro did not finish. ==Major results==
