Is it bike riding weather yet? ?

In the 1890s, bicycles offered many women mobility and independence. Bicycles were not invented in the 1890s, but a new model of bike, the “safety bicycle,” had two equal sized wheels and therefore was safer to ride in a skirt. Skirt-wearers rejoiced. Susan B. Anthony called the bicycle a "freedom machine." ?‍♀️ Not everyone’s “freedom machine” looked like this though. Tiffany and Co. introduced this bike in the 1895 holiday season, at the height of the bicycle craze. This particular one once belonged to Mary Noble “Mittie” Wiley of Montgomery, Alabama. To learn more about this bicycle, check out the link in the bio.
