What’s an Abagal

Abagals was founded on April 1, 2008 in the living room of Abagal Smart’s creator, Sandra J. Mullen, with a select group of formidable, yet ordinary like-minded women. An ensemble of friends and business contemporaries who mutually agreed to gather on this date for an extraordinary purpose; to develop a vehicle, larger than the book (From Pimples to Wrinkles, I’m Pedaling as Fast as I Can), that would enable the support and empowerment of women.

After a few margaritas, a vast array of junk food, bantering, and cheek cramping laughter, the task at hand which originally brought these women together on this date,regained its proprietary focus and Abagals was born. Hence, eight “out of the box”, myopically focused, profound, midlife and beyond women visionaries, gave birth to the following lofty, yet cooperatively attainable mission:
