Michael Creed - Director AeVolo Cycling, former professional cyclist/ National Champion

Michael Creed

This was really fun to catch up with mike and reminisce a bit. I love sharing this conversation to those who enjoy cycling and to give some insight into the experience and wisdom that Mike has. For me, I see his gift of being able to get the most out of his rider and those around him. Very thankful for him to allow us the opportunity we have had and then help facilitate that for others as well.

We speak about his career, some insight on how he was and what was driving him to be his best. Also, what drove him onto the ground - and o pose the question, how do you get across to a young Mike - knowing that state of mind he was in at the time.

We go over our time with SmartStop a bit, as well as into his directing of the USA Paralympic team - and onto currently the AeVolo development crew. A bit on the state of cycling in the USA, social media and how it has changed the sport/our lives, attaining sponsorships, the year ahead of the AeVolo team - among other wide ranging topics.

I quite enjoyed this one. Good to catch up and see Caitlin and Charlie (you’ll hear Charlie a few times throughout 😂).
