The above clip shows how much cyclists are universally admired.

A passer by notices a cyclist and spends about two minutes following
the cyclist, either in admiration of the cyclist, or covetousness for
his bicycle: it is not clear which from the clip

I noticed how he ran away carrying his "viable means of transport", and he
did not seem to be enjoying this very welcome attention.

It seems very clear that the admiration was unwelcome. On this point
we agree.

Seems a lot of bicyclists are despised.
But it is not universal. Many seem not to despise bicyclists.
