I say don't try to make her something she isn't. If she hates opera, don't make her sit through the entire Ring Cycle with you.

If cycling is important to you, date a cyclist.

To add some personal data, when I was dating back in the 1970s, the days with girls on bicycles are the most memorable. Sometimes they were rides to the ice cream shop. My wife, whom I met in 1980 and married in 1983, was the first person I could ride a century with and rode the first Shimano-equipped bike I'd ever seen. I was smitten, still am. She was happy to find a guy who would cycle with her. We rode a metric century just the other day.
