One of the first ways a child feels independent is riding a bike, hair blowing in the wind, zooming down a street, through an open field, or on a trail or sidewalk. The Bicycle Museum of America, in New Bremen takes the kid in everyone back in time to when bicycling was the favorite means of transportation. The museum traces the innovation of the bicycle archetype in 1817, in Germany, to today’s ultra-sleek racing bikes. Offering both guided and self-guided tours, the venue features three-stories of bicycles of every type in its collection. On a rotating basis, 230 of the museum’s 900 bikes are always on display.
