Bike
The first human powered vehicle was created by many different inventors. The first kind of bikes we called weird names like draisines, hobby horses, or push bikes. Even today bikes in other countries are called push bikes. The first person to create a modern bike was named Baron Karl von Drais. He was from Germany and introduced the bike It was introduced in Drais to the public in Mannheim in summer of 1817. Then again in Paris in 1818. The person riding the bike would sit on a wooden frame and then make the bike move by moving your feet. So basically the only differences in todays bikes and the first bikes is the meterials that they used and we added a chain and pedals to make it easier.
