  • English Lecturer: Kyriaki Spanou Email: [email protected] Foreign Language & Sport Terminology ME0153
    English Lecturer: Kyriaki Spanou Email: [email protected] Foreign language & sport terminology ME0153 Cycling also called biking or bicycling is the use of bicycles for transport, recreation, exercise or sport. People engaged in cycling are referred to as "cyclists", "bikers", or less commonly, as "bicyclists". Apart from two-wheeled bicycles, "cycling“ also includes the riding of unicycles (μονόκυκλα), tricycles (τρίκυκλα), quadracycles (με τέσσερις τροχούς) and similar human-powered vehicles (HPVs). Bicycles were introduced in the 19th century and now number approximately one billion worldwide. Today, over 50 per cent of the human population knows how to ride a bike. They are the principal means of transportation in many parts of the world. Cycling is widely regarded as a very effective and efficient mode (τρόπος) of transportation. In many countries, the most commonly used vehicle for road transport is a utility bicycle. These have frames with relaxed geometry, protecting the rider from shocks of the road and easing steering (οδήγηση) at low speeds. People often use bicycles for everyday transport in Europe, Denmark and the Netherlands. The cycling competitions of the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo will feature 22 events. Since the 1896 contests which featured 5 track events and an 87 km road race from Athens to Marathon and back, Olympic cycling had gradually evolved to include women's competitions, mountain bike and BMX to arrive at the current 22 events. The 2020 competitions include 4 more events than 2016. BMX Freestyle events have been added for both men and women. Road bicycle racing is the cycle sport discipline of road cycling, held on paved roads.
