Image description: Picture of a penny farthing, a bicycle with a bit wheel in front and a smaller wheel in the back. Text on the side reads: The Penny Farthing was invented in the 1860s by Eugène Meyer. The name comes from the size difference between the British coins, the penny and the farthing.

That same wheel made them dangerous, as hitting any obstacle caused the rider to be thrown forward, leading to injuries and fatalities.
