The John Lieswyn Diary
John Lieswyn is one of Cyclingnews' most popular and sometimes controversial
diarists. John started road racing in Florida in 1985. After college graduation
in 1990, he raced three seasons for the US National team in Germany, France
and Italy, turning professional in 1993 for Coors Light. In 1995 he returned
to Europe, scoring numerous top ten results and winning the Delemont (Switzerland)
mountain stage of the Regio Tour. After taking a hiatus in 1996, he focused
on the US domestic scene with over 40 major wins. In the pre and post
season (US) he competes in South America, Australia and New Zealand, notably
taking three stage wins in the Herald-Sun Tour (Australia), and overall
victory at the Southland Tour (NZ) and Tour de Beauce (Canada). He has
written for Cyclingnews.com since 1999 and continues this season with
Team Health Net presented by Maxxis.
