Church of the Madonna del Ghisallo - "A Church and museum dedicated to cycling, the Tour de France and Tour de Italia. It is the finish line for the Giro d'Italia and is quite a climb up to the Church! The following photos are of the bikes and things in and around the site. How I wish I'd brought me bike!" -Tim
