Attached Link: Draisine

The eponymous term is derived from German Baron Karl Christian Ludwig Drais von Sauerbronn, who invented his Laufmaschine (German for "running machine") in 1817, that was called *Draisine* (German) or *Draisienne* (French) by the press.

It is the first reliable claim for a practically used bicycle, basically the first commercially successful two-wheeled, steerable, human-propelled machine commonly called a velocipede, nicknamed hobby-horse or dandy horse.

We ALL have too much free time!

 

Isn't THAT the entire purpose of Western civilization... to give free time to the masses?

 

And while some use that free time to buy stuff, some to make stuff, well some of us use it to wonder about the buying and making!

 

Happy Christmas...

 

... one and all!
