The first real bicycle was made in Scotland It was built in 1839 by a man named Macmillan His bicycle had two wheels like a modern bicycle But it was much difficult to ride It was heavier because it was made of wood and iron It did not have rubber tires like a modern bicycle Instead, it had wooden wheels This made it very uncomfortable on bumpy roads But Macmillan was lucky about one thing: he could not get a flat tire!
