This is great and all, but UCI has transphobic policies and doesn’t allow trans female cyclists who transitioned after puberty to compete in their events, full stop. That’s not a matter of fairness. Minimum fairness would at least allow trans athletes based on hormone levels and time transitioned. This is just straight up discrimination. From their rules:

female transgender athletes who have transitioned after (male) puberty will be prohibited from participating in women’s events on the UCI International Calendar – in all categories – in the various disciplines.

Until people actually have enough integrity to not participate in groups that are actively transphobic, I am not going to celebrate their exclusionary wins and triumphs.

and the media just repeats it as if nothing of any note is going on.

Mainstream media at least. Thankfully, Arstechnica and The Verge have been shouting from the rooftops at how unconstitutional and fascist the trump regime is being.
