Ever wondered what it’s really like inside the world of professional cycling? In this episode, I sit down with Mitch Docker, former pro rider and host of the Life in the Peloton podcast, to hear about his new book, Life in the Peloton. Mitch shares fascinating insights on the importance of support networks in both cycling and life, his transition into journalism and podcasting, and his thoughts on evolving concussion protocols in the sport.
Mitch co-authored the book with his friend and former directeur sportif, Tom Southam, and it’s a fantastic read that breaks down the sport’s inner workings, team dynamics, and the journey from the peloton to the media world. Whether you're racing, training, or just an avid fan, this conversation is packed with insights that will change how you see the sport. We also hear about his upcoming projects, including commentating the Vuelta and organizing the "Dirty Docker" event in Melbourne. If you're a fan of cycling, this episode offers great stories and valuable lessons from one of the sport’s best, and you’ll definitely want to tune in.
