S4 Ep47: Brother UK Cycling Podcast - Pfeiffer Georgi interview

Pfeiffer Georgi (Team DSM-Firmenich-PostNL) is the two-time and reigning British women’s road race champion and the leading rider in a young and talented generation of female cyclists from the UK. Still only 23, Pfeiffer is about to begin her sixth season as a professional. Some of the biggest prizes in the sport are now within her grasp.

In the relaxed and informal setting of Calpe’s Hotel Diamante, co-host Timothy John sat down with Pfeiffer at her team’s second training camp of the off-season to discuss her route to the top, a transformational period in women’s cycling and her hopes for 2024 as she attempts to build on the three professional victories gained last year.

Pfeiffer describes her earliest days as a cyclist, racing at Herne Hill Velodrome, her impressive rise through the junior ranks, winning some of the most prestigious races in Europe, and the long-term plan for success conceived by her team: one that has allowed her to develop free from pressure, even after she assumed the role of Classics leader.

From the “deep and burning desire” to regain the stripes of British road race champion that saw her crowned national champion for a second time, to guiding Charlotte Kool, arguably the fastest rider in the women’s peloton, through the melee of a bunch sprint, Pfeiffer offers open and honest answers to questions on a raft of topics, including her competitive desires and time management skills.

With a varied programme ahead, rich in opportunities, from the cobbled Classics to an experimental run at the Amstel Gold Race and, perhaps, even selection for the Olympic Games in Paris, this episode captures Pfeiffer’s thoughts at the beginning of what might be a pivotal season in her career.
