December 9, 2008Dario Cataldo (born March 17, 1985 in Lanciano) is an Italian professional road bicycle racer for UCI ProTeam Quick Step.[1]
After surprisingly winning the Baby Giro in 2006,[2] Cataldo signed as a neo-professional for Liquigas for the 2007 season.[3] In January 2007, Cataldo was hit by a car while training.[4] Later that year, Cataldo won two stages in the Tour de l'Avenir.[5] After a disappointing year in 2008, Liquigas did not renew his contract.[2] Hence, in 2009, Cataldo switched to the Quick Step team.[6]
