Bartolomeo Aimo
Bartolomeo Aimo (sometimes written Bartolomeo Aymo (Virle Piemonte, 24 September 1889 — Turin, 1 December 1970) was an Italian professional road bicycle racer. He finished on the podium of the Giro d'Italia four times (1921, 1922, 1923, 1928) and on the podium of the Tour de France two times (1925, 1926) but never won a grand tour. Aimo was the inspiration for a character in Ernest Hemingway's novel A Farewell to Arms. Hemingway, who served as an ambulance driver on the Italian-Austrian front during World War I, was known for incorporating real-life figures into his fiction, and Aimo was one of them. Hemingway had a lifelong obsession with sports and physical activities, always striving to master them. He became an expert in bullfighting in Spain in the 1920s, developed a passion for big-game fishing in the 1930s in Key West, and pursued boxing, shooting, and hunting throughout his life. It is perhaps no surprise that during his time in Europe, he also developed a detailed kn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Félix Sellier
Félix Sellier (2 January 1893 in Spy, Belgium, Spy – 16 April 1965 in Gembloux) was a Belgium, Belgian professional road bicycle racer. Stage victory in 1921 Tour de France In the 1921 Tour de France, the cyclists were separated in two classes, the sponsored riders and the unsponsored riders. For the thirteenth stage, these classes started separated, partly because the Tour organisers wanted to punish the sponsored riders for not attacking the leader Léon Scieur, and partly because the leader in the second class was helped by cyclists in the first class. Sellier was one of the riders in the second class, and therefore could start two hours earlier than the favourites. Some of the second class cyclists including Sellier stayed ahead, and Sellier managed to win the stage. Sellier would finish 8th overall of the second class cyclists, and 16th in the overall combined classification. In the next year, Sellier started the 1922 Tour de France, Tour de France as sponsored cyclist. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
