So, you wonder what a bicycle is?

Imagine a horse with two wheels instead of legs and much less hair – actually no hair at all. The bicycle is made of a hard, shiny material that can handle most weather. And just like the horse, it takes you where you want. The only difference is that it won’t make an unhappy neighing sound on the way.

You sit on a pear-shaped pillow – which literally is a pain in the ass. The wheels of the bicycle are moving when you press your feet against what we call pedals (little black kind-of-soft squares). You steer it to the left and right with the help of two metal sticks. The metal sticks are stuck to the body of the bicycle. And if you want to transport anything, you can put it in a basket that is attached to the front of the bicycle.

It doesn’t need any food or water, just a little wash every now and then. I think you would love the horse of the future.
