The bicycle went from a strange two wheeled experiment to one of the most popular ways to get around. This episode explores the history of bicycles, from early designs and the arrival of pedals to chains, gears, pneumatic tires, and the machines we recognize today. Along the way, you’ll learn how cycling changed transportation, influenced society, became a competitive sport, and convinced millions of people that balancing on two wheels while moving forward was an entirely sensible idea.
It’s steady and consistent, with no whispering and no sudden changes, just enough to give your mind something to follow as you wind down. Happy sleeping!
