The Bicycle

How Edwardian technology improved the bicycle, which helped it become a universal mode of transportation regarded as one of the most important inventions of all time. The bike was unhindered by class boundaries, enabling residents of urban areas to escape to the country and, surprisingly, it is also credited with widening the gene pool. Last in series.
