We thought you might like this? Did you know the first two wheeled rider propelled machine was invented by Baron Karl de Drais de Sauerbrun, in France in 1818. It was entirely made of wood. It’s also been calculated that cycling at least 20 miles a week cuts in half the risk of heart disease compared to non-cyclists who take no exercise, according to the British Heart Foundation.

Sophie from Santa Cruz, CA sent in this ‘COOL’ bike photo to TGMHQ. We just LOVE cycling, but did you know?

In 1839 a Scot called Kirkpatrick Macmillan made a machine for a rider which had wheels rimmed with iron. Instead of pedals it used cranks – but it was not a success. The next type of bike to be invented was one dubbed “the boneshaker”, weighing around 160lb. It became very popular and in 1868 the first boneshaker bicycle race was held.
