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. Lindsay's actions certainly support the impression that a rivalry existed. Both she and Yatman rode the same 20-mile course in Long Island, New York, over and over again in their century quests, and both stayed at West's Hotel in Valley Stream, Long Island, when they were through. The hotel had a sign in the main room commemorating Yatman's 700-mile ride until Lindsay tore it down and tossed it aside, replacing it with one of her own. The new sign proclaimed: "Champion! Unexcelled β€” Unapproached. Jane Lindsay."
