17 St. 53 Min, 23 Okt 1838 Jahr - First Self Propelled Bicyle
Beschreibung:
A Scottish man named Kirkpatrick Macmillan from Scotland invented the first mechanically-propelled bicycle. This first pedal bicycle was propelled by a horizontal movement of the rider's feet on the pedals. This movement was transmitted to rear wheel by connecting rods. Although this self-propelled bicycle helped riders to operate the bicycle with more convenience and higher speed, the machine was extremely heavy so it wasn't that popular. This bicycle was considered a hoax.
