Stop Now: Cycling Causes Appendicitis
Stop me if this is old news to you. Even though the discovery of the connection was made at the approach of the millennium, the time when the 1800s turned into the 1900s, it is the first I have heard of it. Bikes have been linked (mistakenly, fraudulently, maybe occasionally rightly) to so many maladies and health issues that by now you would think they might come with warnings stuck to the top tubes, or that you would find massive WARNING sections in their manuals.
Dateline 11 January 1897: "Physicians have discovered that appendicitis, one of the most painful and fatal ailments that afflict mankind, is caused by too much riding on bicycles, and all the learned surgeons of the east are acknowledging this fact, notwithstanding the efforts of bicycle manufacturers and advertising writers to the contrary."
Does that not make you wonder how many riders gave it up when the discovery was announced? I mean who would be willing to take that chance against fate?
Well...
keep in mind that quote came from a story called "The Bicycle Fad is Fading," which includes such statements as: "...its popularity is rapidly waning, and many who have learned to appreciate the pleasure of visiting shaded roads and quiet thoroughfares will soon be purchasing horses and buggies to take them where in the days gone by they pedaled laboriously through the heat of summer to reach these out-of-the-way places," and "...the class of females who are becoming enthusiastic riders is no credit to the respectable ladies..." Whoa, whoa, whoa, say what?
Even one hundred twenty years ago, haters were going to hate. Still here; it has been a long fade, hasn't it?
