Here's why you should ride a bicycle!
Here's why you should ride a bicycle!
The world is an open road when you’re riding a bicycle! Bicycle riding
for recreation is becoming more popular than ever. More main roads are being designed with bicycle lanes, and bicycle trails can be found in all parts of the country. Many bicycle trails are formed along old railroad tracks, which are fairly level and placed at a distance from
automobile traffic, and stretch on for miles. This makes them perfect for both the beginners and the experienced bicycle riders.
Bicycles themselves have evolved greatly over the years, becoming ever better than they were before. The first bicycle came into being back in 1817, a simple version with two wooden wheels and propelled by pushing the ground with one’s feet. The bicycle has taken on many shapes over the years. It was in the 1890’s that wooden or steel tires were finally
replaced by pneumatic ones, and bicycling became widespread as a form of transportation. Bicycles were affordable to the general public, and what began as a fad became a reasonable means of getting to where one
needed to go.
Today’s bicycles are a credit to years of improvements, being made of stronger, more durable materials, yet incredibly light weight, and with complex features to give increased speed and ease. Bicycles are
specialized for long distances, racing, city traffic or climbing mountain trails. Bicycle enthusiasts still keep coming up with a better bicycle. The patent office receives hundreds of patents a year for
innovations to make a better bicycle !
