After a career as a professional racer in the women's road peloton, Abby Mickey was ready to walk away form the sport entirely; she was burnt out and frustrated by the treatment that she and her colleagues received as professional athletes trying to make a living racing bikes. But, Abby also knew that the women that she had raced alongside had incredible stories that weren't being told.

Episode Highlights: Hear how the welcoming and engaged community of Veloclub is fueling their membership growth Abby Mickey shares her personal story against inequality in cycling and as a female journalist Learn how Youtube as a channel is helping build an audience excited about women’s racing Description: I’ve been a long time follower of Cycling Tips and became even more of a fan when Abby Mickey, retired professional cycling and extraordinary journalist joined the team. Abby brings a beautiful narrative touch and has such a strong sense of storytelling that it makes every story richer and offers a point of differentiation. I was absolutely thrilled to host her as my guest on this episode of Channel Mastery. During our interview, Abby shares the story of joining the team at Cycling Tips as Associate Editor and the negative response from some of the audience members. This unwarranted feedback was sent to her via email, comments on podcasts and articles or directly to the Editor in Chief. She also shares how the community of Cycling Tips membership, Veloclub is highly engaged, loyal and quickly expanding. You’ll also hear how Youtube is becoming a channel important to women in cycling. Abby was born and raised in the mountains of Colorado. Until college she was a ski racer but once at the University of Colorado Boulder she discovered the world of bikes. She participated in mountain and road racing until she graduated from school with a degree in History. Afterwards she pursued a professional career in road racing and competed in Europe and the USA until 2019 when she hung up her race bike. Now she is an Associate Editor at CyclingTips. She focuses on covering the women’s professional peloton through writing and also on her podcast, Freewheeling.
I sit down with my dear friend, Abby Mickey for a candid conversation on life as a professional cyclist, her struggles through a tumultuous career, nutrition, and what life now looks like after transitioning out of professional sports. For more on Abby, check out Freewheeling, the new podcast from the CyclingTips network: https://cyclingtips.com/2019/12/introducing-freewheeling-a-new-podcast-with-abby-mickey/

Caley and Dave are in Harrogate, trying out all sorts of local delicacies, and open this week's episode with a discussion of junior world champion Quinn Simmons' quick jump up to the WorldTour. Then, Caley sits down with Abby Mickey to preview the elite women's race and talk about the junior road race winner, Megan Jastrab.
Thibaut Pinot powered to the stage 14 victory on the Tourmalet, while Julian Alaphilippe continued to shine as big names like Geraint Thomas lost time. Caley, Rupert, and Iain wonder if it's time to start believing in Alaphilippe and consider who else might be able to knock him out of yellow. Also hear from Abby Mickey and Marianne Vos after a compelling race at La Course.
The first true test of the Tour de France left almost every team a winner - with one notable exception - and provided a look into the next two weeks of racing. The standouts? Geraint Thomas and Julian Alaphilippe. Caley and Rupert discuss the day's racing, and what it all means. At the Giro Rosa, a lumpy stage ended as a few others have before. Abby Mickey calls in with the details.
It's a long way to Paris, but a few contenders for the yellow jersey lost big time in Sunday's team time trial. Caley and Rupert discuss the results of the day, who won and who lost, and what it might mean for the rest of the race. Then we hear from Toms Skujins, who on stage 1 took picked up a call from nature he just couldn't send to voicemail. Finally, Abby Mickey rings in with an update from the Giro Rosa, where an early celebration lost the day.
Welcome to the first Tour Daily episode of the CyclingTips Podcast, which will run from today until the end of the 2019 Tour de France. Caley Fretz is joined by Rupert Guinness at the grand depart in Brussels, Belgium. Guinness, a veteran of 31 Tours, tells stories of pre-Tour prep gone wrong, from Stephen Roche's ill-timed bathroom break to Pedro Delgado's missed prologue. Next, Abby Mickey calls in for a wrapup of the first stage of the Giro Rosa, and a look ahead at the stages to come. We also hear from newly crowned US champion Ruth Winder.
The theme of today’s episode: Conspiracies. There is a surprisingly large contingent of people who believe that Chris Froome’s crash last week was faked. And the manager of a women’s cycling team is claiming that accusations of sexual and psychological abuse from at least nine riders are all part of an orchestrated conspiratorial campaign against him. Pro cyclist Abby Mickey joins Caley and Neal in the basement to discuss the latest racing news, plus the latest maneuverings of the Illuminati.

I have always been a fan of how women bike riders have made their own media, so I was really excited when two American riders started their separate, and very different podcasts. Abby Mickey, who rides for Colavita-Bianchi, has been interviewing riders she's raced alongside, and with; while Lindsay Bayer, who's the co-owner, manager and rider for Hagens Berman-Supermint, is talking to people involved in women's cycling in different ways, and a different setting (mostly involving alcohol). I wanted to know more about them both - so I invited them on for probably my most meta podcast ever - podcasting about podcasting! We talk about a lot more too - why Bayer started her own team, how both of them have almost always ridden for female-run teams, how to spot Mickey's mother at races, and much more. Have a listen - it's only half an hour long! Click through to my blog to find all the links to where you can find Bayer, Mickey, and most importantly, their podcasts: https://prowomenscycling.com/2017/03/14/lindsay-bayer-abby-mickey-podcasting/
