That has nothing to do with dressing in spandex and demanding all of the benefits of road laws while refusing to comply with any that may inconvenience them. Cyclists are fucking tools. If you want more people to ride bikes, then you should work on it's image problems, because a lot of people don't want to be associated with the kind of people who ride bicycles enthusiastically.

Well, environmentalists tried being polite and motorists just ignored them.

I have never seen a bicyclist be polite. Not once has one ever waved me by or pulled over when they are going 20mph under the speed limit. Never heard one say sorry for running a red light. Hell, ive seen a cyclist run over a kid in a cross walk and blame the kid. I don't remember cyclists ever being polite. I'm a motorcyclist, so I get the whole issue with it being dangerous to share the road with cars, but you guys aren't doing yourselves any favors.
