Hobby Horses is not a bicycle transportation as we know it today, but this tool is just a wooden frame with two wheels without pedals and chain system. Hobby Horses continued with the development of innovations that made Baron Karl Von Drais of Germany which in 1817 had created a new tool named the "Draisenne" which has advantages in developing a tool that uses the energy of motion of the driver's legs.

Looking at the advantages and benefits Draisenne use this tool more then created and used.
