the bicycle: a brief history

Today we take a little ride down memory lane courtesy of our friends at the Pedaling History Bicycle Museum. Join us, as we learn about:

The Draisienne or Walking Machine of 1817



The Velocipede or Boneshaker (1865)



The High Wheel Bicycle



The Ladies' High Wheel Tricycle



The Pneumatic Tire of the Gay Nineties (1890s, that is)



The 20th Century Kid's Bike



And of course, the present day Village Bicycle
