Zárate to Saunier Duval for two

According to a press release from the team, young Spanish rider Carlos Zárate has signed a two-year deal with Saunier Duval-Prodir for the 2006/07 seasons. The 25 year-old is only in his second year as a professional, but has already proven himself when he won a stage of the Vuelta al Pais Vasco as a neo-pro, dropping none other than Jens Voigt and continuing on his own for 35 kilometres to win the third stage on his own.
