Read the excerpt from chapter 4 of wheels of change. yatman had little time to savor her ownership of the long island women's century record, as jane lindsay responded with an even longer ride. on october 18, lindsay completed an 800-mile marathon in 91 hours, 48 minutes. upon reporting lindsay's newest feat, the new york times pointed out that there was no monetary reward for such "useless and necessarily injurious trials of strength" and suggested what the women's motivation might be. "bitter rivalry, that characteristic feminine trait, and the determination to 'get even' are seemingly the actuating motives," wrote the times. why are these statements by the new york times subjective? the reasons listed as motives for the competitive nature of female cyclists are able to be proven. most people would agree with the idea that it is “useless” to compete when money is not the reward. it is unlikely that anyone would disagree with the opinions expressed by the new york times. someone else may view the actions of the female cyclists as admirable and impressive.
