Video: Mona Mitterwallner & Simon Andreassen Preview the Opening Round of the Internazionali d'Italia Series
Agreed. The D'Italia Series courses put (most) world cup courses to shame. Way more interesting and fun looking.

I still think it is lame the elite men and women don't race the same number of laps.

4 Key Stats from World Cup XC Racers in the Pinkbike State of the Sport Survey
@scary1: transgender people represent 0.01 to 0.06 of the world population. The propeotion of those who are elite athletes is even smaller. I think you are overstating the so called problem.
Though I do understand if/when it happens there is a discussion to be had re: fairness.

@bman33: Dude, why are you insulting me? I merely pointed out the playing field isn't exactly equal (fact) and proposed an experimental approach to testing it.

@jclnv: I guess my question to you is: why do you care so much how a person wants to identify?

@bman33: It appears to me that women tennis athletes get more equal access to marketing, promotion, and media which would explain packing stadiums and pushing merchandise, hence the smaller gap in pay. All I am saying is women don't get the same visibility as male athletes (in most sports), and my hypothesis is that if they did you would see them create more revenue for their brands.
And there is a way to test this (albeit unrealistic).
