Search Results - Bicycle

Type in a word or phrase to search:

The bicycle, cycle, or bike is a pedal-driven, human-powered vehicle with two wheels attached to a frame, one behind the other.

Bicycles were introduced in the 19th century and now number about one billion worldwide.[1] They are the principal means of transportation in many regions. They also provide a popular form of recreation, and have been adapted for such uses as children's toys, adult fitness, military and police applications, courier services, and competitive sports.

The basic shape and configuration of a typical bicycle has changed little since the first chain-driven model was developed around 1885.[2] Many details have been improved, especially since the advent of modern materials and computer-aided design. These have allowed for a proliferation of specialized designs for particular types of cycling.

The bicycle has had a considerable effect on human society, in both the cultural and industrial realms. In its early years, bicycle construction drew on pre-existing technologies; more recently, bicycle technology has, in turn, contributed both to old and new areas.

1. Exercise bike - Which style to choose.
August 30, 2008

Upright exercise bikes are the closest to a standard bicycle, that is the pedals are beneath the rider, and the rider is seated on a narrow seat with the handlebars out in front. This arrangement is welcomed by hardcore cyclists because of the similarity to there normal road bike. Upright bikes simulate the action of a real bike except you don't go anywhere. Some experts say the upright bike is more efective than the recumbent as you tend to put more effort in than the relaxed position of the recumbent. On the other hand the recumbent bike, has a bucket seat which have the pedals out in f... (read more)

2. Believe in Yourself
August 22, 2008

Don't we all want to be successful? In life? As a person? In your career, job, business? The fundamental law of human achievement is the law of belief. It suggests that you always behave in a manner consistent with your beliefs. If you believe you are a Roman Catholic, then you are. If you believe you are a Buddhist, you are. If you believe you can ride a bicycle, then you can ride a bicycle. Even if you can't ride a bicycle as long as you believe you can, but if not then you will persist in failing until you can actually ride. Unfortunately, once you decide you can't ride a bicycle, then... (read more)

5. Pedal Power
August 20, 2008

Scotsman Kirkpatrick McMillan created the first pedal powered bicycle in 1839, and was involved in the first recorded bike accident when, during a cycling trip to Glasgow in 1842, a small girl ran out in front of him leaving her a little bruised and him 5 shillings poorer! Over 160 years later the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) reported that over 15 thousand cyclists are killed or injured in reported road accidents and more than 2,300 are seriously injured or killed. With more and more people choosing pedal power over increasingly expensive petrol power it is import... (read more)

6. Pedal power rules: just make sure you're insured
August 11, 2008

With the rise in environmental awareness and the need to maintain a healthy body, owning a bicycle has never been more popular. Indeed, according to the latest statistics, there are now over 23 million cycles in the UK, with around 60 per cent of those being used for commuting or professional purposes. And, with the generally high costs of operating a car, coupled with spiralling fuel costs that are increasingly threatening to empty people’s purses, cycling provides a cost-effective method for getting around.

10. History of the Harley Davidson Bike
August 05, 2008

Today, Harley Davidson motorcycles are a household name, but it hasn't always been that way. The Harley Davidson Company officially began with the completion of its first bike in 1903. Unofficially it all began in 1901 when a young man named William S. Harley had a vision for attaching an engine to a bicycle. He drew up plans for a small engine that displaced 7.07 cubic inches and had 4-inch flywheels. He designed this engine for use on a regular pedal-bicycle frame. By 1903 William Harley had joined with his boyhood friend Arthur Davidson, as well as Arthur's brother Walter. They used the ... (read more)

11. Choosing The Right Bike Lock
August 04, 2008

A bicycle lock is a physical security device used on bicycles to prevent theft. They are generally used to fasten the bicycle to a bicycle rack or any immovable object. Bike locks are a safe and inexpensive solution to the safety and security of your bike when you ride to work or school. Even if you don't commute a bike lock can be handy for stops while taking rides. One important thing to consider when choosing a bike lock is who will most likely steal your bike.

13. Why You Too Should Be Cycling
July 24, 2008

Do you remember when you first took to your bicycle, it was so you could be like one of the big kids? Then, as soon as you mastered the bike, it quickly became your primary mode of transportation, because you could get to where you wanted to go a lot faster than walking. Then you got your drivers license, and the bicycle was parked, probably for several years. For some of us it was stored away for eons, until the family Doctor suggested that we “…get a little exercise”. And yes, it’s easy for someone else to tell you what it is you should be doing with your life, and it is quite common th... (read more)

The recumbent, on the other hand, provides a backrest that allows the user to re... (read more)

15. Who Needs Custom Motorcycle Insurance
July 24, 2008

When we buy a car we never doubt that we need to have car insurance by law, we also know we need a drivers license before we can drive that car and of all these facts we are aware even before we are at the designated age to drive. When it comes to a drivers license for a motorcycle or to custom motorcycle insurance most of us have no idea of what we need. More confusing terms When you ask a big man in a leather jacket and a small boy about their bikes they will probably revere to something completely different. The first motorcycles built where just simple variations on a bicycle th... (read more)

22. Fitness Workouts - Abdominal Workouts
July 03, 2008

There's no doubting at all that working out the abdominal area requires a lot of willpower. Many people I talk to draw on negative experiences in the past, but more often than not this is due to the burn they feel in their stomach which simply means the exercise is working! If you keep persisting, you'll find you will see results in no time at all. People also constantly get themselves in trouble as they do the exercises incorrectly. This can cause pain in other areas of the body such as the back and knees, and in turn not do any benefit for your abs. Vertical Crunch The Vertical Crunch... (read more)

Invention of the Bicycle and Cycling Bicycles nowadays are taken for granted, but they have not always been around. Here we take a look at the development of the bicycle and the popularity of cycling. In almost every home in the world there is a bicycle.
