The First Motorcycle

[AFJ]

According to what I have read, the first motorcycle (two-wheeled, engine -powered vehicle) was demonstrated on April 5, 1818 in Paris, France.
Which would make to-day the 186th anniversary of the motorcycle.
Happy Birthday!

Thanks Al- interesting!

I'll do some work in the garage to celebrate.

France seemed so advanced in the 18th c. why?
