+ See More - See Less -Timothy Johnson (born August 5, 1977 in Middleton, Massachusetts) is an American professional racing cyclist who has found success in cyclo-cross and road bicycle racing. In 2007, Johnson captured his second U.S. national cyclocross championship repeating his 2001 success.
In 2006, Johnson finished the season without landing outside the top-4 in any Cyclocross race entered. As a co-captain of the Health Net Professional Cycling Team he helped the team achieve its 3rd consecutive #1 NRC Ranking.
In 2005, Johnson edged two-time defending champion Mark McCormack to win the New England Championship Cyclo-Cross Series title and finished second overall in the United States Gran Prix of Cyclocross series after leading the Overall.
In 2003, Johnson won two stages and the overall title at the Herald Sun Tour, a road bicycle racing stage race held in Australia.
Johnson is married to fellow cyclist Lyne Bessette.
Tim injured his shoulder on the first lap of the first race of the season and has still managed some good results and a win today. I think when he gets healthy we'll see Johnson clearly be the strongest rider in the US this year.
