The boy gets 100x less support from sponsors because of the size of the fields he runs with and he is quite below average in a wider region or national level. My cousin is about average in the wider region. She gets a lot of support from sponsors being a girl in the minority, so has a ton more opportunities to ride than the guy.
There is something more to it than when and how you start riding. Be it biological or mental. However I am not suggesting a girl won't do well. There is always people who will break the mold and do what people thought impossible.

Oh well, then I guess women just can't race and it's appropriate to throw a celebration whenever one is just slightly above average...
The funniest thing here is that while I (Tigger the asshole, douche, dick, etc) am standing up for women, all of the "nice/sensitive guys" and the chicks are saying that women will never be as fast as men on the track and can't compete...
Okay, where the fuck is that Rod Serling motherfucker hiding?
