Mark John Lexer Galedo (born September 11, 1985) is a Filipino former road bicycle racer, who competed as a professional for UCI Continental team 7 Eleven–Cliqq–air21 by Roadbike Philippines from 2013 to June 2024.

Galedo was inspired to take up cycling after he watched Victor Espiritu finish, as the 1996 Marlboro Tour (now the Tour de Filipinas) champion.

Personal life

Galedo formerly had Guevarra as his last name but discontinued using it in competitions after his father abandoned their family.

Associated with Caloocan, Galedo is a former car-painter and kitchen helper. He also runs a bicycle shop in Mandaluyong with his wife.
