Cycling governing bodies reconsider transgender athlete policies.

The UCI 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 UCI's most recent guidelines came into effect in June 2022, which stipulate that transgender women athletes must declare that their gender identity is female, demonstrate that their total testosterone level in serum has been below 2.5 nmol/L for a period of at least 24 months, and then remain at 2.5nmol/L throughout the period of desired eligibility to compete in the women's category.
