how to patent a new invention
bicycles are now taken for granted, but they have not always around. Here we take a look at the evolution of the bicycle and the popularity of cycling.

In almost every household in the world, there is a bicycle. I'm sure we can all remember our first bike, and how we learned to drive.

My first own bike was green, and I still remember the day my father took me into the park to the back of my bike so I could cycle along the footpath. Suddenly I realized that Dad was not along beside me! I was cycling alone. Oh, the joy, I had finally managed to ride my bike pretty green. I was so happy, I fell out! But as they say, if you know how to ride a bicycle, this ability never leaves you, so I am back on my bike to ride home to tell my mother what I had achieved. It was a beautiful day.

Most children even a bicycle, it gives them a sense of independence. As they get older they cycle and to visit their friends in the school and thereby relieve the parents of the work of taxi drivers.

In fact, only bicycles appeared around 170 years. The first bicycle was invented less than a mile from the park in SW Scotland, where I learned to drive.

It was a cumbersome, what a weight of around 57 pounds, made of wood with iron rims.

What hobby-horses and bicycles have in common?

In the 19th Century hobby horses were very popular toys. A blacksmith, Kirkpatrick Macmillan, watched a child playing on a hobby-horse, and decided, one for themselves. He considered the effort in this movement, and came up with the idea of adding pedals to the wheel back. This evolved into the prototype of the first bicycle.

He became a familiar sight of horse riding his bicycle along the country roads Rutted SW Scotland. Gaining in confidence, he on a journey of more than 60 miles to Glasgow, it 2 days. Upon arrival, he for one child and was the first person to a fine (five shilling) for the acceleration.

Kirkpatrick Macmillan never financially benefited from the invention of the bicycle, as he did not patent his design. It remained for others to develop. However, when you consider there are twice as many bicycles as cars in the world, and Scots as Graham Obree, Chris Hoy, and Mark Beaumont have world-famous cycling champion, it remains the reader, about the inventor of the bicycle's heritage more lasting than inspiring and preferable.
