Evaldas Šiškevičius (born 30 December 1988) is a Lithuanian professional road bicycle racer and mountain biker, who rides for UCI Continental Delko–Marseille Provence KTM.[1]
Born in Vilnius, Šiškevičius has competed as a professional since the start of the 2011 season, as the La Pomme Marseille team he had been a member successfully became a Continental team.[2] Šiškevičius won the Volta ao Alentejo in 2011 – as well as a stage during the event[3][4] – before winning the GP de la Somme in September 2012.
Šiškevičius left La Pomme Marseille at the end of the 2012 season, and joined Sojasun for the 2013 season.[5] Šiškevičius returned to Team La Pomme Marseille 13 for the 2014 season,[1] after Sojasun folded at the end of 2013.
