The Origin of the Cycling Term 'Park'
The term 'park' has been used by cyclists since the late 19th century. It was first used in the United States, specifically in the Baltimore, Maryland area. The term was used to describe a paved area or parkway on which cyclists could ride. It was a place where cyclists could ride and gather in safety.
The term 'park' was popularized by the League of American Wheelmen, a cycling organization founded in 1880. The League of American Wheelmen used the term in their official documents, and it quickly became a popular term among cyclists. The term was used to describe not just the physical area, but also the activity of riding in the park.
Today, the term 'park' is still used by cyclists to refer to a paved area or parkway where they can ride. It is also used to refer to the activity of riding in the park, and is an important part of the cycling culture.
