Read the excerpt from chapter 3 of wheels of change . in the 1890s, riding a bicycle in traditional clothing could be hazardous to a woman's health. witness this all-too-typical account of a female cyclist whose adventure came to an abrupt end: "the wind was behind me, the road good, with just the least bit of down-slope, and i was skimming along like a bird, when there was an awful tug at my dress and a cracking sound," recalled the unnamed woman, who was quoted in the journal sporting life in october 1891. "before i knew what was the matter i found myself lying in the road with the safety on the top of me." which best characterizes the effect of the woman wearing "traditional clothing"?
