With the cop taking so long to catch up to the cyclist, and then yelling out the window "pull over, pull over", the cyclist more than likely thought that the cop was on their case for riding on the road. Running the stop sign was old history for the cyclist.
So the cyclist were protesting that they have a right to be riding in the traffic lane.
