UCI to reopen talks with athletes, federations on transgender participation

The peloton racing

The UCI announced that it will reopen consultation with riders and national federations on the subject of transgender athlete participation in cycling events. The decision was made following a recent Management Committee meeting held from May 2-4 in Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy.

"The subject of the participation of transgender athletes in international competitions was discussed at the UCI Management Committee meeting. The Management Committee decided to analyse the current situation by reopening consultation with the athletes and National Federation. Members, therefore, agreed to debate and take an eventual decision at its next meeting, in Glasgow, in August," the sport governing body said in the statement on Thursday.
