In today’s age, children, youth and adults all want to travel without any physical exertion. At least a bike-like vehicle is required. It has now become a common thing to buy a car on loan and drive it with petrol with hard-earned money.

Born in France to a wealthy family, Comte de Médi de Chivrac used to make wooden, household items every day. The bicycle he built was the first bicycle in the world. Built from logs in 1791, this bicycle had no pedals, steering wheels, brakes, etc. The person traveling in it has to propel himself forward by pushing his legs.
