Ride a bike on Sunday straight to hell

A Puck cartoon from a Forbes piece on the 1890s bike boom. That looks like at least 3 races I’ve done. A commute or two. Back then, the concerns were ill effects of too much cycling, improper female attire, and skipping church service. Today the bike backlash is what? Not paying road taxes, salmoning, and being a scofflaw? Or between cyclists regarding plainclothes or kit.
