Giro Day Twenty: Aero Italiano

Dario Cataldo was one of the few riders that went for full time trialing attire.  Most went with road bikes with aerobars in an effort to keep the weight down since this was more about weight to power ratio than a pure power and aerodynamics of a typical time trial.  Cataldo, riding for Team Sky, is the Italian National Time Trial Champion, so his racing kit includes the markings of the Italian flag.  He had a great ride today, good enough to take first place until even stronger riders stormed up the mountain.  This is an original watercolor and ink postcard that can be yours by visiting a brief 3 day auction on ebay and placing the winning bid.  Just follow the direct link at the end of this post, but act quickly, the auction begins as soon as this post is published.
