I found that out thirty years ago when I biked into Lakewood cemetery in Minneapolis to see my sister's newly placed headstone. The guard at the gate came running out after me and told me bikes were not allowed.
I locked my bike to the fence and walked to her gravesite. It pissed me off then. Still pisses me off.
Edit: That is a picture of my deceased sister in my avatar, giving me a ride on the handlebars, circa 1978.
Well apparently the guard must have thought you were just going to ride around the cemetery for recreation and not to pay your respects. I don't think there's anything disrespectful at all about riding your bike to a cemetery as long as you're not racing through trying to get a Strava KOM.
