The British Cycling Association has banned transgender athletes from competing in the men's category. The decision was made after a series of high-profile incidents involving transgender athletes.

The ban is expected to be in place for at least a year, with the possibility of an extension if the issue is not resolved. The move was made in response to a petition signed by more than 100,000 people. The petition was started by a group of transgender women who want to be able to compete in the women's division of the British cycling federation.
