Summary:
Bicycles can be used for many things apart from transportation. Traces the evolution of bicycles from the "walking machines" and "boneshakers" of the 19th century to the slick racing bikes of the 21st, and also shows how bikes can make the world a better place. "Pedal it!"celebrates the humble bicycle from the very first boneshakers to the sleek racing bikes of today, from handlebars to spokes to gear sprockets and shows you why and how bikes can make the world a better place. Not only can bikes be used to power computers and generators, they can also reduce pollution, promote wellness and get a package across a crowded city fast! Informative but not didactic, Pedal It! encourages young readers to be part of the joy of cycling.
