World Bicycle Day

World Bicycle Day is held on April 19. The events of the first LSD trip in April 19, 1943, now known as “Bicycle Day”, after the bicycle ride home, proved to Hofmann that he had indeed made a significant discovery: a psychoactive substance with extraordinary potency, capable of causing significant shifts of consciousness in incredibly low doses. This event in the second decade of the month April is annual. Help us Help us 
19 April - World Bicycle Day
There are over 1 billion bicycles currently being used all around the world. Cycling as a popular pastime and competitive sport was established during late 19th century in England. Bicycles save over 238 million gallons of gas every year. Smallest bicycle ever made has wheels of the size of silver dollars.
The term bicycle was coined in France in the 1860s, and the descriptive title "penny farthing", used to describe an "ordinary bicycle", is a 19th-century term. Known by many names, including the “velocipede,” “hobby-horse,” “draisine” and “running machine,” this early invention has made Drais widely acknowledged as the father of the bicycle. But the bicycle as we know it today evolved in the 19th century thanks to the work of several different inventors.
