If you love being on your bicycle, then a bicycle of the month club could be perfect – giving you plenty of products. This is true regardless of whether you focus on mountain biking, gentle rides, commuting, or something else.

Did you know that the first bicycle-like invention was created by Karl von Drais, a German Baron, in 1817? His contraption was not called a bicycle and instead went by other names such as hobby-horse, running machine, and velocipede.

Drais's invention looked similar to today's bicycles in that it had two wheels of the same size; however, instead of pedals to propel one forward, you use your feet. Additionally, the front of the frame was far longer than what we expect to see on bicycles today, and the steering mechanism looked more like a wagon handle.

Though the hobby-horse quickly went out of fashion, Drais is still thought of as the “father” of the bicycle.

Bicycles returned to the scene in the 1860s thanks to several inventors across Europe, who added pedals to the front wheel. However, unlike the hobby-horse, this cycle had a tall front wheel and a short back wheel. Also, the newer version was referred to as a bicycle, though after one ride, many nicknamed it the boneshaker.

Finally, in 1885 John Kemp Starley improved on the boneshaker by creating the “safety bicycle,” which had two wheels of equal size and a chain drive. Later years would see the addition of brakes and tires.

Over the past couple of centuries, the bicycle has seen several improvements, and even today, engineers are constantly tweaking the various styles to enhance durability, size, speed, and more. Plus, there are now different bikes, like mountain bikes, road bikes, hybrid bikes, folding bikes, cyclocross, and touring bikes.

And as the bicycle has evolved, it has also grown in popularity and availability. In the US alone, there are more than 47 million people who enjoy cycling. Bicycling is a way to commute, a form of exercise, a competitive sport, and a fun hobby.

Regardless of why you enjoy biking, there are enough bicycle subscription boxes that you can easily find one that will meet your needs. Bicycle subscription boxes are the best way to try numerous bicycle products, accessories, apparel, fueling snacks, and recovery nutrition.

And, if you're focused on being outside, there are other interesting options out there too, like golf of the month clubs. You could even complement your experience with a snack subscription.
