Giusto Cerutti (1903-1993) had at least one bad day at the Tour de France in 1928.
We don’t know much about the grumpy cyclist with the broken bicycle. But one thing is sure, he is the unlucky (anti)hero of one of the most searched vintage cycling images on the internet.
According to ProCyclingStats, Cerutti abandoned the race ont he 7th stage. This picture was taken most likely on that day.
The Tour de France in 1928 was won by Nicolas Frantz, who led the race from the first to the last stage.
