QUOTE:
British Cycling [sic] is to ban transgender women from the female
category of its competitions following a nine-month review and consultation.

Under a new participation policy that the governing body said was
"predicated on fairness", such athletes will compete in an 'open
category' with men.

Female races will be "for those whose sex was assigned female at birth".

The changes will prevent riders such as Emily Bridges potentially being
part of the British women's team.

Last year Bridges - the country's highest-profile transgender cyclist
[sic] - was stopped from competing in her first elite women's race by
the UCI, cycling's [sic] world federation, despite meeting the rules at
the time.

Bridges reacted to the announcement with a statement on social media,
calling the change a "violent act" by a "failed organisation" that was
"controlling" the conversation on transgender inclusion.

She added that the racing scene was "dying under its watch" and that
British Cycling [sic] was engaged in "culture wars".

For all the inherent ridiculousness of the situation and the rest of the
response, Bridges' last seven words are probably correct.
