I suppose that if a gay rider had a child (biological, adopted or otherwise) there could be no objection to them bringing them on to the podium. Of course if would be awesome if the rider in question refused to take to the stage until they came up with some handsome men instead of the pretty women.
Perhaps there should be a podium preference form.
Who would you like at any podium presentations during this race?
a) partner and/or children
b) 2 beautiful models MM, FF, MF (delete as appropriate)
c) representatives of a local cycling club
d) beloved family pet (No Komodo Dragons cf: The Deux Alpes Incident)
e) a local dignitary
f) the rider you beat in a sprint dressed as a clown
g) Other ____________________________________ -
I think the podium is probably the last of your concerns if you're a gay pro cyclist. The peloton is a cold place for a gay rider: at least, we can only presume it is as there has never been an openly gay pro cyclist ever, which is statistically highly unlikely verging on impossible.
So the 'what can a gay rider bring onto the podium' debate is a little premature.

It's either dolly birds or showing off your prowess at game of heterosexualism. The podium is still a cold place for gay riders.
