According to the Wheels of Change chapter five excerpt, a change in society and its ideals is the historical background that is most evident.

The story, taking inspiration from "Wheels of Change" informs the reader that there had been a notable shift of the position of the women, who have, quite literally gone with the "wheels" of change. Women were earlier using wheels to spin thread, which was and is still seen as solely a woman's work.

However, with time, women began to ride on wheels as cyclists, implying their modernity and participation in outdoor activities, which used to be restricted to men. This changed the dynamics of the sexes in favor of the women, who could now be seen and treated as equals to men and enjoy the same freedoms.
