Photos of the 2009 Giro di Lombardia from Fotoreporter Sirotti:

This photo looks to me like the start of the Madonna del Ghisallo climb on the shore of Lake Lecco.

The leaders crest the Ghisallo climb. That's Philippe Gilbert in the Silence-Lotto kit second from the right.

World Champion Cadel Evans bundled up for a cold Lombard fall day.

Ivan Basso (in green Liquigas kit) is followed by Great Italian Hope Damiano Cunego (Lampre).

What an athlete! Philippe Gilbert attacks and Samuel Sanchez chases.

The sprint for third place. Alexandr Kolobnev (in white and black Saxo kit) takes it. The photo at the top of the page is the sprint between Sanchez and Gilbert.
