How Bicycles Came to Be

"...the most likely "inventor" of the bicycle is Baron von Drais.
In 1817 he invented what he called the "running machine" also known as Draisine, after the Baron.
Another common name was the Dandy Horse.
He built the machine to help him get around the royal gardens faster...."
