Andrea Noè (born January 15 1969 in Magenta) is an Italian professional road bicycle racer. Since turning professional in 1993, he has always raced with Italian teams. One of his greatest achievements was winning stage 11 in the 1998 Giro d'Italia.

In the 2007 Giro d'Italia, the 38 year old Noé took the leaders pink jersey on the extremely long stage 10 after outclimbing his breakaway companions of two days earlier. He had 1:08 on on the 2nd placed rider Marzio Bruseghin and 2:58 on his Liquigas team captain and 2005 UCI ProTour Champion Danilo Di Luca. By doing that, he became oldest rider ever to wear a leader's jersey in any of cycling's Grand Tours. He held onto the jersey for a second day before relinquishing it to Danilo Di Luca.
