Hi, there's a petition on change.org that currently has over 5,000 signatures and is rising fast. Sorry, I can't seem to make a clicky link work. It's called 'Demand the UCI evaluate evidence on sex differences in sport'.

And thank you for flagging this up.

Unfortunately this will probably get bumped over to petitions, so you might have to mention it in other feminist threads to keep it going.

No worries, thanks for posting a clicky link Smile

Hopefully it'll be left up long enough for other mumsnetters to see it. I only found it by chance whilst on Twitter.

There's already a thread on petitions about this one, isn't there?

Signed, and forwarded it to DH as he heads out to meet his cycling buddies. Have suggested it as a possible topic of conversation for the pub afterwards Grin

Squeakycheese · 24/10/2019 19:08

That's great, hopefully they'll all sign :)

Signed. I manage a Twitter account at work and a fairly high proportion of followers are cyclists. The RM story has been re-tweeted by a few of them recently and all think RM is a cheeky fucker and women's sport needs protecting. I also think the tide is turning.
