Description

In Roads Were Not Built for Cars; Carlton Reid reveals the pivotalmdash;and largely unrecognizedmdash;role that bicyclists played in the development of modern roadways. Reid introduces readers to cycling personalities; such as Henry Ford; and the cycling advocacy groups that influenced early road improvements; literally paving the way for the motor car. When the bicycle morphed from the vehicle of rich transport progressives in the 1890s to the ldquo;poor manrsquo;s transportrdquo; in the 1920s; some cyclists became ardent motorists and were all too happy to forget their cycling roots. But; Reid explains; many motor pioneers continued cycling; celebrating the shared links between transport modes that are now seen as worlds apart. In this engaging and meticulously researched book; Carlton Reid encourages us all to celebrate those links once again.
