John Foster adds to Wenzel Coaching over 13 years of racing experience, including six years as a Category 1 and two years as a professional with the US Nutra-Fig team and the Swiss Ficonseils team.

As a part of René Wenzel's original "Class of 1991" junior development program (along with riders such as Fred Rodriguez and George Hincapie), John is well familiar with the Wenzel Coaching training philosophies. He has also been a multi-time Idaho State Champion who credits his success to his training and knowledge about racing over his given talent.

As a coach, John has helped along the riders on three elite cycling teams that he helped both start and run. He is a detail-oriented coach who believes strongly in the mind/body connection and is looking forward to helping cyclists set goals and achieve them.

Known as sharp tactician and valuable teammate, John also put his cycling knowledge to use writing for various publications, including VeloNews and Bike.com. He makes his home in Boise, Idaho, where he is managing editor of the Idaho Business Review. He has earned more than a dozen writing and investigative reporting awards as a reporter and editor.

In his spare time he enjoys trail running, reading the New Yorker, surfing the internet, cooking Italian food and hiking in the red rock deserts of southern Utah and northern New Mexico. He and his wife Andrea, a college math instructor, have a son, Jack, and a daughter, Naomi.
