About this book

The Velocipede: Its History, Varieties, and Practice is by J. T. Goddard. The advice to the beginner says that learning to manage the bicycle requires no more skill, courage, or patience than learning the art of skating. The text says that with proper caution there is no danger either of falls or hurt in using the velocipede in the way advised. A rough pine floor, the text says, is much the best for practice if you learn in a school or rink.

The Hanlon Brothers, well-known as gymnasts, have the reputation of being the best riders in the country, and their hall, the largest in New York, is furnished with twenty-five first-class machines. A list of numbered claims includes the hinged legs in combination with the body of the horse, and with the cranks, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
