I grew up in a cycling family, listening to the tales of my father's experience as a professional racer in Ireland. My journalism career has included 5 years as the Editorial Director of ROAD magazine. When I'm not slaving away over a laptop I can be found racing my bike, being an early adopter for anything electronic and randomly tweeting. I'm available for opportunities as a freelance journalist and can be contacted by email at neil at neilbrowne.com. Since 1999, I have been a coach with Wenzel Coaching. Go to my coaching page for more information about becoming my coaching client. I write a cycling fitness column for Examiner.com. Check it out my Examiner column here. Additionally I write a semi-regular column for the Astana cycling team website. If you are on Facebook you can find me at my Facebook page.
