Karl Drais invented the earliest two-wheeled riding machine or velocipede in 1817, which incorporated the basic two-wheeler principle of the bicycle and motorcycle. Road bicycle racing began as an organized sport in 1868 and has been part of the Olympics since 1896. Mountain bike racing includes races like the famous Megavalanche, and mountain biking involves riding off-road in a style more similar to trail running than road cycling.Juan

The Games continued for over 1000 years until being abolished in 393 AD by the Christian Roman Emperor Theodosius I who deemed them pagan. The modern Olympic Games have been held every four years since 1896, usually alternating between Summer and Winter events, in different host cities around the world.Emily Ratcliffe-Argent

The document discusses how loneliness and lack of physical activity put the baby boomer generation at risk for health issues like diabetes and dementia. It proposes that exercising together could help address both loneliness and physical health. Specific ideas are generated for how to get "Mary" to sign up for a local social group focused on physical activity, such as signing up at the grocery store, encouraging from friends or her doctor, or having her daughter sign her up. Insights note the importance of different levels of commitment to sign up and how one's motivation may differ based on who signs them up. Open questions consider what activities would appeal most to baby boomers and how meeting facilitation could work.Learn BEM: CSS Naming Convention
