Story of the Giro d'Italia, volume 1

The race:

The Tour de Luxembourg is currently (2011) a 5-day stage race held in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg during either late Summer or early Fall.

The race features many short, steep climbs and in the past, when the race was held in late May and early June, riders looking to perfect their form for the Tour de France would often ride the Luxembourg tour for training.

Mathias Clemens (active as an independent and as a pro from 1935 to 1948) holds the record for Tour de Luxembourg wins at five. Pierre Clemens, Mathias' brother, shows up a lot in this race's results as well, getting second but never winning the race.

Charly Gaul and Edy Schutz have both won it 3 times. All three riders are from Luxembourg.
