A pair of trans-identified males placed first and second at an Illinois cycling championship race on December 3, topping a field of biological females.

Tessa Johnson came in first at the Illinois State Cyclocross Championship’s Women’s Singlespeed category, while Evelyn Williamson came in second. The only biological female on the podium was Kristin Chalmers, who placed third.

The championships took place in Montrose Beach on Dec. 3, marking the final race in the eight-race Chicago CycloCross Cup. 

Johnson finished the women’s four-lap singlespeed race just over two minutes ahead of Williamson, who finished one minute and 20 seconds ahead of Chalmers.
