Gender-Neutral Sports

Time was when you couldn't use "gender", let alone "transgender", in the same sentence with "sports". 

Thankfully, we've been seeing more high-level trans people in various sports.  I like to think that had I transitioned when I was young, I might be one of those athletes.

The best part is that the category of "gender neutral sports" is expanding and now includes martial arts and basketball, as well as quidditch.

But where's cycling?  I can hardly think of a more gender-neutral sport.
