Who are 50 of the most influential people in American cycling? Find out at @escapecollective but congratulations to @nicolacranmer and @jviolich for inclusion on the list.
The word âInfluentialâ needs a definition to help inform this list. The Oxford dictionary defines influence as âthe capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behaviour of someone or something, or the effect itself.â
To narrow down the definition of âInfluentialâ even further, I think it should also encompass the spirit of being positive and in the service of others.
@teamtwenty24 are one of the few elite development teams for aspiring women in the US and theyâve sent numerous riders to the Olympics. Almost every major US rider comes through Twenty24 at one point, including multiple-time Olympic gold medalist Kristin Armstrong, who now works with the team, Mari Holden, Mara Abbott, Coryn Labecki, Chloe Dygert, and many more). Theyâve had an enormous impact on the womenâs side of road cycling.

2026 will be a year to embrace our loved ones and our core values. It may likely be one of internal conflict and of meaningful choices. Choose well. đ listen to your heart and maintain Integrity.
Holiday spirit in full force. Although I am very excited for a new yearâŚand leaving much of last year behind, the last 3 months of 2025 were specialđĽ°
