Based on Chapter 4 of Wheels of Change, which quotation helps develop the central idea that some people did not support the idea of women participating in cycling races? Acording to her account, the men disagreed on whether or not a woman could ride a bicyle around the world as American Thopmas Stevens had done in the 1880s.
“I don’t like when my husband is with me,” [Dora Rinehart] told The Cycling West magazine in 1897. “For you know it does take so much starch out of a man to ride a century, especially if he be not in the best of shape.”
“Miss Yatman plainly showed the effects of the terrible strain in her countenance,” reporteed the New York Times, “and said that the ride was torture during the last twenty-five miles.”
In 1896, Sporting Life applauded what the newspaper saw as the failure of a recent six-day women's bicycle race in New York City, declaring, "This ensures that the disgusting and degrading exhibition will not soon be repeated.”
