"The bicycle: a simple, clean, and environmentally sustainable means of transportation was invented in 1817 by Baron Karl von Drais de Sauerbrun. This was the first two-wheeled rider-propelled machine ever invented. Since its invention, the bicycle has contributed to cleaner air, less congestion and has made education, health care and other social services more accessible to the most vulnerable populations. Beyond its social, environmental and health benefits, recent social studies carried out in Uganda, Tanzania and Sri Lanka have shown that having a bicycle can increase the income of a family by as much as 35%. This is a tremendous help at grass roots level and can assist people to get out of poverty." (Curious Earth, 2024)
