Here's another male-to-female cyclist comparison:
Cole Sprague ➡️ "Chloë Spritz"
Spritz has been doing extremely well in women's singlespeed and category 1/2 in cyclocross.
I'm sure he was an incredibly talented bike racer when he raced against men, too, right?

Cole Sprague's career finish breakdown on says he took a few wins and a few placements towards the top when racing against men.
Looks like all the wins were early in his cyclocross racing career.

As the years go on, he doesn't get many podium placements or even top 10s.

When Cole Sprague switches to racing with women as Chloë Spritz, he's on the podium in almost every race.
What an improvement!

Can someone at @usacycling explain how Cole Sprague's results improved so much when he changed his name to Chloë Spritz and started racing in the women's category?
I'm really stumped. 🤷♀️
