TheTrofeo Baracchi was a majorItaliancycling race that ran for 50 years.[1] It was created byGiacomo Baracchi, in memory of his father Angelo who was a great cycle racing fan. Originally (from 1941) an amateurindividual time trial, from 1944 it was open to professionals and became a major event on the European calendar. Initially it took place every two years but from 1949 it became an annual event and adopted thetwo person team time trial format. It continued with this formula until 1990.[2] The last running of the event in 1991 reverted to a solo time trial and also held as theGrand Prix des Nations.[3]
