    ON THE HORIZON THE 21ST CENTURY’S HORSELESS BUGGIES How New Ways of Getting Around Change Society OTH IN BRIEF • Each time a new mode of transportation has been introduced and becomes popular, there have been battles on how to share the roads and walkways with the existing transportation. • Dedicated lanes by transportation time may alleviate some of the conflict. • Artificial intelligence, AI, is piloting everything from drones to delivery robots and cars. • AI is still buggy and can cause confusion or put people at risk when the AI tries to interact with the real Online Bicycle Museum world. • Human jobs will be displaced by AI Always Innovating vehicles, this will change the types of crimes seen. he first wheel and the first time a horse was ridden both occurred sometime around 3500 • AI vehicles rely on cameras to operate, B.C.99 By the late 1800s Britain had one creating a wide surveillance network horse for every ten people, America had one and raising privacy concerns. horse for every four people, and Australia Thad one horse for every two people.100 As the century wore on, new methods of travel began to emerge. With travel by car resulting in only 20 fatalities per terameter (1,000,000,000,000 meters), compared to the 180 fatalities per terameter for horseback riding, maybe it was no surprise that horses and horse-drawn vehicles found themselves banned from streets where cars were now free to roam, especially as the cost to own and operate a vehicle dropped below the cost of the equine models.101 20 | NCSC 2020 But before the car took over, another mode of transportation demanded some attention.

  • Shooting Star: a Biography of a Bicycle
    SHOOTING STAR: A BIOGRAPHY OF A BICYCLE Geoff Mentzer 2 SHOOTING STAR: A BIOGRAPHY OF A BICYCLE Copyright © 2020 by Geoff Mentzer All rights reserved. 3 In a scientific study of various living species and machines, the most efficient at locomotion – that is, the least amount of energy expended to move a kilometre – was found to be a man on a bicycle. –SS Wilson, Scientific American, March 1973, Volume 228, Issue 3, 90 The Dandy Horse of 1818, said to be the first velocipede man-motor carriage. Sharp, Bicycles & Tricycles: An Elementary Treatise On Their Design And Construction, Longmans, Green, and Co, London, New York and Bombay, 1896, 147 4 INTRODUCTION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS What began as a brief biograph of the author's forebear Walter William Curties soon doubled into a study of two men, and expanded into an account of early bicycle – and a little motoring – history in New Zealand. Curties is mostly invisible to history, while Frederick Nelson Adams – who rose to national pre-eminence in motoring circles – by his reticence and reluctance for public exposure is also largely overlooked. Pioneering New Zealand cycling and motoring history – commercial, industrial and social – have been variously covered elsewhere, in cursory to comprehensive chronicles. Sadly, factual errors that persist are proof of copy and paste research. As examples, neither Nicky Oates nor Frederick Adams' brother Harry was the first person convicted in New Zealand for a motoring offence, nor was the world's first bicycle brass band formed in New Zealand. It must be said, however, that today we have one great advantage, ie Papers Past, that progeny of the Turnbull Library in Wellington.

  • Adventures in Western New York History MANUFACTURERS of WHEELS and MOTORS by Roger Squire
    Adventures in Western New York History MANUFACTURERS OF WHEELS AND MOTORS By Roger Squire The Bicycle The bicycle reached the height of its popularity in the late nineteenth century. It was both a cheap, quick means of travel over a short distance and a pleasant, healthful sport. Before it reached its maximum efficiency, however, it went through the usual evolution of a complex machine. The idea of riding on a seat directly over wheels occurred to several Europeans in the early 1800's. The man credited with the invention of the first practical two-wheeled vehicle was Karl von Drais, Baron of Saurbronn, who in 1816 appeared on the streets of Karlsruhe, Germany, on a contraption called the Draisine. A Frenchman, Chevalier de Sivrac, had invented a hobby-horse, the Celerifere, in 1790, but his model was of little use since it could not be steered. The Draisine consisted basically of two small carriage wheels and a length of wood called a backbone, connected with two v- shaped uprights rising from the front and rear hubs of the wheels. Other parts were the saddle and back rest, and a crude tiller for steering. The rims of the wheels were covered with bands of iron. The rider moved forward by pushing the ground alternately with his feet and coasting between strokes. It was strenuous, but could double a man's pace with half the effort of walking. This invention was followed in Europe by such variations as the Dandy-Horse, Swiftwalker, velocipede, and Bivector. In 1838 a Scottish blacksmith, Kirkpatrick MacMillan, pro- duced the first bicycle that could be driven with both feet off the ground.
