Early Life and Career
Alfredo Binda was born in Italy but spent his early life in Nice, France.
His younger brother Alvino also became a cyclist. Binda initially trained as a plasterer but dedicated much of his time to cycling. In 1922, he turned professional and won several minor races in his first three seasons.
Rise to Prominence
Binda's breakthrough came in 1925 when he won the Giro d'Italia.
The Trofeo Alfredo Binda - Comune di Cittiglio was an Italian road cycling one-day race that took place on 17 March.
He followed this with his first victory at the Giro di Lombardia that autumn, a race he would win three more times. Binda's extraordinary ability to excel in both stage races and one-day classics set him apart. In 1926, he became Italian national champion and retained the title for the next four years.
