Summary
==Summary==
 
Cycling developed as a sport and leisure activity in the early 1800s. Early bicycles were uncomfortable and often dangerous, which made them less amenable to the wider public until the 1870s, when bicycles began to be developed having safety as a major priority. This led to the increase of cycling among the general population. That changed in the 1900s, as the automobile led to the decline of cycling. More recently, however, cycling has had a new lease, as it is now seen as part of larger urban transport plans as well as part of recreation and sport.
