The model of a bicycle that was invented in 1817 was called "the walking machine" and it was very similar to the bicycles we know today except that instead of pedals, you would push your feet off the ground in order to make the machine move. The "walking machine" was made entirely of wood.
Later versions of the bicycle featured pedals, were made of metal, and eventually evolved into the bicycles you see on the street every day. Bicycles are a healthy and eco-friendly form of transportation. They almost eliminate the common problem of traffic jams and parking. Bicycles are also cheaper than motor vehicles, and also save tons of money because instead of being powered by gas, they are powered by you!
