The penny-farthing was the first machine to be called a "bicycle". The name came from the British penny and farthing coins. The penny was much larger than the farthing coins, so the side view of the bicycle looked like a penny is leading a farthing coin. Here is a rare film of an official penny-farthing race 90 years ago, from 1928. | HistoryBites
