This week James is Fran Millar, possibly the most influential woman in British cycling. Today Fran is CEO at Rapha, but her long CV includes managing Geraint Thomas and Mark Cavendish; a decade at Team Sky/Ineos, in which she became ‘head of winning behaviours’; operations director for Eliud Kipchoge’s sub-2hr marathon record; and then CEO at clothing brand Belstaff. She is also David Millar’s sister, but really that’s just a footnote to a fascinating career. In this episode, Fran talks candidly about the problems at Rapha – and why they will solve them; life working alongside Dave Brailsford at Sky, including developing and propagating their famous winning mentality; what went wrong at Ineos Grenadiers (and it’s not what you might think); what it’s like having David Millar as a brother; and whether TNT’s new TV cycling deal is about to kill British cycling.

This week on the Cyclist Magazine Podcast, James and Will are joined by Peter Sagan. When Sagan burst onto the scene in the early 2010s he was heralded as the greatest talent of his generation, and so he proved to be. 121 professional victories later he’d notched up three World Championships, seven Tour de France green jerseys, multiple Grand Tour stages and national titles plus a Tour of Flanders and a Paris-Roubaix cobble. Famed for his dry wit, flamboyant riding style and antics on and off the bike – from wheelies to running man celebrations – Sagan became cycling’s poster boy for the better part of his 15 year career. Now retired, Sagan reflects on a life at the top, from the heady highs to the soul-searching lows; explains the importance of team dynamics; gives us his thoughts on today’s riders; and opens up about a recently discovered heart condition that could have ended his life and has ended up costing him any further professional racing career. 0:00 Introduction 2:40 Life in retirement 9:45 Cycling today and the Pogacar-Vingegaard rivalry 12:28 Life as 'The Next Eddy Merckx' 21:51 The highs and lows of professional racing 33:50 Slovak star from humble beginnings 36:20 Heart condition 46:36 Afterthoughts Subscribe to Cyclist magazine: http://store.cyclist.co.uk/cycpod You can find more articles on our website: http://cyclist.co.uk/ Follow us on Twitter: http://x.com/cyclist Like our Facebook page: http://facebook.com/CyclistMag/ Find us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/cyclist_mag/
