The bicycle has affected history considerably in both the cultural and the industrial realms. In its early years bicycle construction drew on pre-existing technologies, while more recently bicycle technology has contributed in turn to other newer areas. Beyond recreation and transportation, bicycles have been adapted for use in many occupations, in the military and in sports as well. A recurring theme in bicycling has been the tension between bicyclists and drivers of motor vehicles, each of whom argue for ther fair share of the world's roadways.
