In 1900 few women rode a bicycle. Ladies of the time had long skirts, high boots, and were buttoned up fairly well. It was improper to show an ankle let alone other body parts. They also didn't take part in many sports since it wasn't "lady like". Society was very structured in 1900. Women still couldn't vote, own property, have a bank account, run a business, go to college let alone get ono a very high seat of a bicycle.
