Matthew Lloyd (born 24 May 1983) is an Australian former professional road bicycle racer, who rode professionally between 2007 and 2014. Lloyd is the first Australian cyclist to win a King of the Mountains competition in a grand tour.
Career
He turned professional in 2007 with the Predictor–Lotto team, after riding for the SouthAustralia.com–AIS team. He was an Australian Institute of Sport scholarship holder.[3]
Lloyd was released by Omega Pharma–Lotto in April 2011 for "behavioural reasons" rather than a drug problem.[4] Lloyd signed a two-year deal with Lampre–ISD in November 2011.[5]
