Podcasts about wiggle high5

We caught up with the recently retired Lucy van der Haar (née Garner) about her career. From entering the sport through riding penny farthings, to becoming World Junior Road Race Champion ... twice. From the difficult transition to elite women's racing, riding for some of the biggest teams in the world with Argos-Shimano and Wiggle High5 and finding happiness with Norwegian team Hitec Products. Her decision to retire, views on women's cycling, where she wants to ride now she's retired, being married to cyclocross superstar Lars van der Haar and loads more.

In the November episode of The Cycling Podcast Féminin Richard Moore, Orla Chennaoui and Rose Manley discuss the latest events in women's cycling. There's an interview with Lucy Kennedy of Australia and Mitchelton-Scott at the recent Taiwan KOM Challenge, which she won, and we hear from French rider Audrey Cordon-Ragot on her move from Wiggle-High5 to Trek-Segafredo. Rachel McKinnon recently became the first trans woman to win a world cycling title, taking gold in the sprint in the 35-44 age group at the UCI Masters Championships. We discuss the possible implications for women's sport and speak to Madeleine Pape, a former runner turned academic and an authority on efforts by sports bodies at gender verification, including setting levels of testosterone for female athletes. "Gender verification," she has said, "whether it relies on genetics, DNA, hormones, or gonads, is destined to fail." There's also an interview with Isabel Best, author of a new book, Queens of Pain: Legends and Rebels of Cycling.

Randy and Dean Warren recap Boels-Dolmans' Megan Guarnier's Giro Rosa stage race win.  American racers dominated the 9 day race in Italy, with Guarnier's teammate Evelyn Stevens taking 3 stage wins and second overall.  Wiggle-High5's Mara Abbott took a mountain top win as well and finished 5th overall.  The Warren brothers discuss all that has happened thus far in the Tour de France, including the successes of British riders.  There were breakaway wins and the competitions for the various jersey's remain extremely close.  Randy and Dean look forward to the upcoming stages including this week's Mont Ventoux climb.

This week we talk up a storm about all the racing that's happened over the last week (and how it's nice to get live video this week!). We catch up on Drenthe, Drentse8 and the ABSA Cape Epic. There's another very open video from Wiggle High5 about their performance on the weekend. There's been some really interesting articles come out that caught our attention as well. Dan doesn't actually pick a fight with anyone this week but we do invent a new board game. It's a long one and it plumbs new depths of nerdery! We have tons of links to things we talked about, and things we didn't get around in, in the podcast post on our site: http://prowomenscycling.com/2016/03/16/podcast-2016-episode-8-depths-of-nerdery/

Egon van Kessel is one of the great Directeurs Sportifs in the women's peloton. After his own cycling career, he moved to directing, and among his achievements are many years coaching and managing the women's and men's Dutch National Team, through Olympics, World Championships and more, and DSing for some of the biggest names in the women's peloton, including USA Saturn, in the 1990s, and the much-missed Cervélo Test Team in the 2000s. In 2014 he demonstrated why he has such a great reputation, taking over a Wiggle Honda team that was stuffed full of big personalities, and ending the season at the top of the UCI rankings with an amazing four Road World Cup wins. I talked to him about how he did it, what his biggest achievements have been, his plans for Wiggle High5's 2016 season, and more.
