Leonardo Fabio Duque (born April 10, 1980 in Cali, Valle del Cauca) is a French-Colombian professional road racing cyclist, who last rode for the Delko team.[1] After stage 19 of the 2009 Tour de France, Duque was named the most combative rider of the stage after aggressively pacing a breakaway. In 2011 he became the first Colombian-born cyclist to finish the cobbled One Day Cycling Monuments, the Tour of Flanders and Paris–Roubaix. He also competed in the men's Madison at the 2004 Summer Olympics.[2]
