Yes indeed horses and beasts of burden were here 1st, but the bicycle was on the road before cars were invented.
It was bicycle mechanics (Henry Ford, Wright Bros.) who invented cars and airplanes using advanced bicycle technology. Neither could exist without pneumatic tires, precision bearings, tension-spoked wheels, chain-drive, rolled steel, and other technology invented for bicycles.

I think of this when I am sometimes yelled at to get off the road...lol
