Oh RMcK gets way more attention on KF - there’s a whole thread that’s 179 pages long. They know RMcK reads it, as we know RMcK reads here.

Funnily enough RMcK only ever seems to quote or ‘mock’ stuff from MN. A predominately woman based site. Odd that.

Babdoc it’s already here, but not in a way that will make you smile.

Foxy Moxy Racing

“We are Foxy Moxy, a cycling club and racing team focused on promoting trans- and gender non-conforming inclusive sport, through positive and unapologetic visibility in competitive and recreational cycling. We embrace and embody the spirit of foxes: intelligent, strategic, social, fast, and fierce.

We promote radical inclusivity in competitive sport for people of all gender identities and expressions. We aim to do this by focusing on developing an elite women/trans/femme (WTF) road, criterium and time trial race team, and a broader development/club level team. ... Crucially, we welcome all riders and all cycling disciplines. We particularly welcome cisgender allies and other woodland creatures to ride and race alongside us as part of the team.”

There are team pictures too.

Cheaters are gonns cheat

Could we persuade an elite male cycling club to enter all its members in a high profile women’s race, claiming that they identify as women for the day? And ensure max publicity when they take all three podium places, to really spotlight how awful this destruction of women’s sport is?

I am sitting here debating with myself if I dislike more Boris Johnson or McKinnon... oh, it's a close thing...

McKinnon is a cheat.

No one's questioning McKinnon's right to race, it's a question of the 'right' to take up a space in an alternative sex grouping that McKinnon does not belong to. Because McKinnon wants to. Without McKinnon owning the biology that defines that sex class which renders it an unfair competition. In McKinnon's favour. Which spits on the 'rights' of every actual member of that sex class.

Nice spin, shame about the facts.

Excellent, good to see pronouns being thrown out the window. People are becoming more aware, but it needs petitions to the governing bodies to make a real change.

Comments on Twitter are robust.

Good!

And if the news makes it to Spinster it’ll be even more frank.

The Bicycling Magazine twitter account retweeted it again yesterday:

"rachelvmckinnon is going to continue racing—doing what she loves to do, which she has a right to do—no matter what internet commenters or competitors say".

Comments on Twitter are robust.

The article linked is dated 4 Jan 2019. What makes you think it's been brought up again?

Kit your links not clicky, so there’s no context to your post.

Maybe add a clicky link and some more details and you’ll get more response.
