Description:
"A new interest in nature, travelling, hiking and open-air sport had been apparent for some time by the turn of the century. Young, progressive people were particularly keen on a more mobile way of life. They wanted to escape from the narrow confines of the velvet-draped salons, in which their parents’ generation had felt so much at home. Moreover in France a holiday in the country was one of the most popular forms of relaxation. The Comiot firm, in advertising it’s new, two wheeled transport vehicle, fitted with every gadget from brakes to gears, directed it’s appeal at the younger generation" (Paris 1900, p.180)
