Who owns the oldest bike here?

[walter branche]

david herlihy

Well, pretty much everyone agrees that von Drais is the first bicycle, but Walter is right, the first thing actually called a bicycle was the velocipede developed by Lallament and/or Michaux about 1863. It has been pretty much established that the Macmillan never existed though. At least that is the consensus of the leading bicycle historians of our time.

yes, i see where david herlihy has disputed the mcmillan claim, and proven it to be false ,,. there are many false (lies) about all parts of living and life ,columbus discovering america, the easter bunny, santa clause,the tooth fairy ,,thanks for clearing up another incorrect fable of someones imagination
