<p>This week James and Will are Fran Miller, possibly the most influential woman in British cycling.</p><br><p>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 brother, but really that’s just a footnote to a fascinating career.</p><br><p>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 Grenediers (and it’s not what you might think, also Pidcock is mentioned); what it's like having David Millar as a brother; and whether TNT’s new TV cycling deal is about to kill British cycling.</p><br><p>Interview begins at 15.05</p><br><p>------------------</p><p> </p><p>Did you know Cyclist is also stunning monthly print magazine?</p><p>Subscribe now at <a href="http://store.cyclist.co.uk/cycpod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">store.cyclist.co.uk/cycpod</a> and get every issue for less than in the shops, delivered straight to your door.</p><p>And it's also a rather lovely website about everything road cycling and gravel.

<p>In this week's episode, Robyn and James are joined by Connie Carpenter Phinney, who is 1984 became the first ever Olympic Women's Road Race gold medal winner.</p><p>Connie charts her career from 14 year-old winter Olympic speed skater to champion road cyclist, a sporting career which saw her win multiple national titles and dominate races such as the Coors Classic.</p><br><p>Married to fellow American cyclist Davis Phinney, mother to ex-pro Taylor Phinney and mother-in-law to reigning Tour de France Femmes champ, Kasia Niewiadoma (Taylor's wife), though Connie has long since retired she's still very close to cycling, and here contrasts her experiences competing in 1980s with life on two wheels now, from her near non-existent racing budget to building her own wheels, burning out after the Olympics and watching her son race, including witnessing the horror crash that nearly cost him his life.</p><br><p>An irrepressible spirit, Connie has no sporting regrets, and today puts her energy into the charity she founded after husband Davis was diagnosed with young onset Parkinson's. The Davis Phinney Foundation aims to raise awareness, money, and crucially to provide support and resources to those living with, and caring for, people with Parkinson's.
