Hangin’ In There: The Floyd Landis Journal
During the 2002 Tour de France, Cyclingnews welcomed Floyd Landis
as a reporter. The talented, gutsy, 28 year old former mountain biker
had ridden his way to a start in the Tour as a key part of Lance Armstrong’s
USPS squad, and Landis went on to distinguish himself as an important
member of the now legendary “Blue Train” at Le Tour. Floyd also endeared
himself to Cyclingnews readers for his unique take on an American rookie’s
life in the Tour De France peloton.
2004 has Floyd return with his exclusive journal “Hangin’ In There.”

Nationality: American
Team: United States Postal Service
A strong climber and time trialist, 26 year old Landis, from Lancaster Co.,
PA, burst onto the road scene in 1999 in his rookie road year, wearing the Maillot
Jaune and finishing third in the Tour de l'Avenir stage race, followed by 4th
place in 2000. After an up and down 2001 season with Mercury, Landis has been
a great addition to USPS in 2002, recently placing 2nd overall behind winner
and team leader Lance Armstrong in the Dauphiné Libéré.
