Fast cars weren’t as fast as they seemed because the costs to society and to the individual were far higher than ever appreciated. ROADS WERE NOT BUILT FOR CARS Viewed from a windscreen, roads look as though they were built for cars and trucks. Britain’s motorways and the elevated arterial road systems of the 1960s and 1970s seem to bear this out but such car-centric highways are the exception not the norm, and there aren’t that many miles of them. ROADS WERE NOT BUILT FOR CARS On September 20th, 1893, the Duryea Brothers road-tested the first gasoline-powered American-built automobile. Most people assume it was early cars such as these – and later ones from the likes of Ford and Buick – which paved America. In fact, the impetus to create better roads didn’t come from the automobile industry, it came fromcyclists.

The ROADS WERE NOT BUILT FOR CARS In June 1905, a car carrying US president Theodore Roosevelt was stopped for speeding, by two policemen on bicycles.

The overwhelming majority of roads in the UK are general purpose roads; roads for everybody, not just cars.

Specifically, it’s an English roadster of about 1897, preserved in aspic by ROADS WERE NOT BUILT FOR CARS "How cyclists were the first to push for good roads & became the pioneers of motoring."

REVIEWS
Reviewers have been positive in their praise for the first edition of the book. The revised second edition was published in April 2015 by Island Press of Washington, D.C. It is available in a number of formats: print, Kindle, ePub and a media-rich iPad version.
JEREMY SENKO, SPACING MAGAZINE, CANADA " ... in Roads Were Not Built for Cars, readers are taken through a massive history lesson,
drenched in facts and anecdotal information, around just how influential bikes have been throughout their time ... There were times where I was absolutely riveted, I couldn’t peel my eyes from the page ... The sheer amount of factual information is trulyawe-inspiring ...
EDMUND KING, PRESIDENT, AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION “This fascinating insight into the origin of roads will break down some road ownership issues, and help promote harmony for all road users whether on four wheels or two.” PROFESSOR DAVID COX OBE, CHAIR OF COUNCIL, CTC “Roads Were Not Built For Cars is a major and original piece of work, and a significant contribution to social history. It is also an underpinning for current debates about the urban realm.” SAM JORDISON, THE GUARDIAN “ … closely argued, meticulously researched … book is also a treasure trove of curious trivia and arcane detail. iPad edition puts professionals to shame, featuring lovely use of video, a wealth of images, clever 3D models, and even a 19th-century ditty about speeding cyclists.”
RICHARD PEPLOE, ROAD.CC “… a reassuring amount of research has gone into the book … an essential reference … ... 9/10.”
BRIAN PALMER, THEWASHINGMACHINEPOST.NET "...when all's said and done, I don't really care why you buy a copy of this book, whether it's on paper or in pixels, but buy it you must ... a major triumph ... for each and every cyclist the world over." ROSIE BELL, HURRYUPHARRY.ORG "Roads Were Not Built For Cars is a polemic shot through with a sense of injustice for the written out and colonised – the literally marginalised literally pushed in the gutter when they had literally paved the way for the motorist – it could be enjoyedby
Jeremy Clarkson."
LAURA LAKER, CYCLING WEEKLY “Well-written and thoroughly researched with fascinating insights from primary sources ... 10/10.”
HANS "NO WAY" REY, VIA TWITTER “Interesting read … City councils should take note.”
NICK CLAYTON, CYCLE HISTORIAN, VETERAN-CYCLE CLUB NEWSLETTER "This volume is the cycle history dissertation for our age … fascinating snippets not noted elsewhere … Whenever a new character or event it is seamlessly related to other players in the story and what may start as a diversion turns out to add flavour, knowledge and enlightenment ... Readers interested in the history of the motorcar will be similarly hooked ... None of the old cycling myths are regurgitated; the prose and proof-reading are beyond reproach and Nicola King’s indexing is immaculate … I cannot recommend this book more highly." DAVID HENSHAW, A TO B MAGAZINE “Roads Were Not Built For Cars is something of a bicycling Ben Bur … entertaining exploration of the early days of motoring …” David Henshaw. A to B Magazine, December 2014. LESLIE REISSNER, PEZCYCLINGNEWS.COM " ... exceptionally well-researched … a fascinating story … important book … describing the development of much of the world we see outside our doors … Roads Were Not Built for Cars ... can be said to break new ground in cycling history, shows us not only the highway from the past but also how we might want to consider howwe view the future.
”
DR. ROBERT DAVIS, ROAD DANGER REDUCTION FORUM "This book is a lot more than a dry history of road building … it fascinates with a steady stream of revelatory contemporary views on who those roads were for. As such it is … a contribution to the debates we should be having now on transport policy.”
RICHARD PEPLOE, VELO VISION "I don’t believe that there has ever been a more thorough explanation of firstly why roads are now seen as being purely for transport use; secondly why the needs of motor transport have priority over any other consideration; and thirdly the role that bicycles have played ... This book ... gives hope that things can change ... Looking to the future, the book questions whether motorways ... could eventually suffer the same fall from grace as railways if they become less relevant: it might seem inconceivable now, but this book reminds us that transport priorities can and do change, along with the building works required to support them."

CHAPTER OVERVIEWS
Roads Were Not Built For Cars has 170,000 words spread liberally over fifteen finely-argued chapters. There’s also a stonking great appendix detailing the 65 car marques that had bicycling beginnings, a 21-page index (print book only) and a roads history timeline. The notes and references – all 90,000 words of them – are online.CHAPTER 12
PEDAL POWER: In the 1890s, American cyclists were a force to be reckoned with. They voted for candidates in favour of Good Roads, and could decide local and national elections. Behind the scenes, officials from the League of American Wheelmen were cogs in the Federal government machine.CHAPTER 15
FROM KING OF THE ROAD TO CYCLE CHIC: Cyclists of the 1880s and 1890s were transport progressives. Many later morphed into motorists. When bicycles became affordable to the masses the social cachet of cyclists became but a memory. By the 1920s cycling was “poor man’s transport” and in the 1960s it was thought that everybody would soon own a car, and that bicycles would become extinct.CHAPTER 14
WITHOUT BICYCLES MOTORING MIGHT NOT EXIST: The first automobiles contained more cycle DNA than horse-drawn carriage DNA. In the 1890s there was a seamless transfer of technology, personnel, and finance between bicycle and motor car companies. Pioneer racing drivers, motoring journalists and automobile event organisers tended to have cut their teeth in the world of cycling.CHAPTER 13
MOTORING’S BICYCLING BEGINNINGS: The motorists and cyclists of the 1890s and early 1900s were not from different sections of society – they were frequently the exact same people. Motoring pioneers originally celebrated their cycling credentials. By the end of the 1920s, with the development of its proletarian image, cycling’s vital contribution to the development of motoring was deliberatelysuppressed.
CHAPTER 11
AMERICA’S FORGOTTEN TRANSPORT NETWORK: For a few brief years, the intense interest in cycling from American progressives led to the creation of the world’s best facilities for what was felt to be the urban transport mode of the future.CHAPTER 10
GOOD ROADS FOR AMERICA: The push to pave America was started in the 1880s by cyclists who wanted smooth roads. The “Goods Roads” movement snowballed before the introduction of motor cars.CHAPTER 9
“THE MECCA OF ALL GOOD CYCLISTS”: For the final 30 years of the 19th century, Ripley in Surrey was the go-to destination for the smart set of the day. The 10 miles between the Angel Inn at Thames Ditton and the Anchor Hotel at Ripley were world-famous, and busy with cyclists on all manner of machines. Many of those who would go on to become influential motor magnates cycled along the “Ripley Road” and, years later, would gather for nostalgic reunions.CHAPTER 8
“WHAT THE BICYCLIST DID FOR ROADS”: In 1886, ten years before the arrival of motor cars, a group of well-heeled individuals created an influential organisation that lobbied for better road surfaces, and pushed for the nationalisation of Britain’s neglected highways. The trailblazing Roads Improvement Association eventually became the cornerstone of the “motor lobby” but it was founded, funded and originally run by cyclists.CHAPTER 7
HARDTOP HISTORY: Asphalt is a bitumen-and-aggregate carpeting that’s so ubiquitous it’s invisible. Blacktop has a long history but there was no inevitability about its mainstream adoption. It took many years of trial and error before the modern recipe was settled upon. In the meantime, many roads were capped with granite setts, dusty macadam and forgiving rubber. London’s roads, like that of many other cities, were surfaced with Australian hardwoods.CHAPTER 6
WIDTH: Many roads have been wide for hundreds of years. They were widened not for motor cars but to reduce congestion, to create better vistas, to prevent insurrection or to create healthier, wealthierstreets.

WHO OWNS THE ROADS?
_Roads belong to all and need to be shared by all. However, there’s a long history of some road users believing they have priority overothers. _
Social scientists theorise that humans believe in three kinds of territorial space. One is personal territory, like home. The second involves space that is only temporarily available, such as a gym locker. The third kind is public territory, such as roads. “Territoriality is hard-wired into our ancestors,” believes Paul Bell, co-author of a study on road rage. “Animals are territorial because it had survival value. If you could keep others away from your hunting groups, you had more game to spear, it becomes part of thebiology.”
When they are on the road, some motorists forget they are in public territory because the cues surrounding them – personal music, fluffy dice, protective shells – suggest they are in private space. “If you are in a vehicle that you identify as primary territory, you would defend that against other people whom you perceive as being disrespectful of your space,” added Bell. “What you ignore is that you are on a public roadway – and you don’t own the road.” A standard quip from bicycle advocates, aimed at a certain type of mine-all-mine motorist, is “You own a car, not the road.” Some motorists insist it’s cyclists who have the entitlement issues. “Cyclists think they own the roads,” is a typical retort, common on forums and in local newspaper letters pages the world over, but most especially in America, Canada, Britain, Australia and New Zealand. In July 2014, Courtland Milloy, a columnist for the Washington Post wrote, in all seriousness, that “biker terrorists” are “out to rule the road”. (He later apologised.) Belief in road “ownership” – even if it’s just the few metres in front and behind the road user – leads to disagreements, but probably what many motorists and cyclists would agree on is that roads are thoroughfares for travel. Pioneer motorists would amplify and expand the idea of roads being for transport only but the transformation of the road’s role was already well advanced by the time the first automobiles came along. The bicycle, the fastest vehicle on the road in the 1870s through to the mid-1890s, certainly played a part in redefining what a road was for, but apart from a smooth surface, the slim, single-track bicycle needed little in the way of built infrastructure. Trams, on the other hand, needed a great deal of dedicated space. With their rails and, once electrified, their overhead cables, trams very much transformed the concept of what roads were for, and that large parts of them could be appropriated for travel, and travel alone. Later, motorists benefited from the land grab made by private tram companies. This was done by ripping out the rails put down at such great expense, and replacing them with motor-centric asphalt. The hegemony of the motor car was accelerated by countries co-operating to ease its passage. In Europe, in the early 1900s, it was extremely difficult to drive between nation states. Motor cars had to be “imported” at every border and pay punitive duties in each country visited. Many countries required motorists to pass national driving tests. Automobile clubs – many of them founded as cycling clubs – lobbied hard to get such restrictions lifted. The lobbying took place at an international level, and would quickly transform “public highways” into “motoring roads.” By 1908, just twelve years after Britain’s “Emancipation Act” had legalised the use of motor cars, the officials at an international roads conference – many of them motorists, some of them former campaigning cyclists – took it upon themselves to define what roads were for. The Permanent International Association of Road Congresses excluded horse-drawn traffic from its remit at its first conference, held in Paris in 1908. PIARC delegates started to exclude cycling traffic from its work at the congress held in Brussels in 1910. At the London conference held in 1913, cycling was removed completely. Roads, decided the PIARC delegates, were only for A-to-B travel propelled by motors. There were only 105,734 motor cars in use in Britain in 1913 yet they had already driven many traditional users off the roads. “The right of the pedestrian to use the King’s highway is one of the most valuable and cherished public possessions,” wrote rambler and rights of way expert G. H. B. Ward in a 1913 pamphlet. “Notwithstanding the legal right of the pedestrian to the full and free use of any part of the King’s highway … the modern multitude of motor-cars have, to all intents and purposes, driven him off the main trunk, county, and interurban roads …” The legacy of the PIARC decision in 1913 is still with us ….CHAPTER FOURTEEN
WITHOUT BICYCLES MOTORING MIGHT NOT EXIST _The invention which had the most immediate influence on the early history of the automobile was the bicycle._RUDI VOLTI, 2006
THE FIRST AUTOMOBILES CONTAINED MORE CYCLE DNA THAN HORSE-DRAWN CARRIAGE DNA. IN THE LATE 1890S AND EARLY 1900S THERE WAS A SEAMLESS TRANSFER OF TECHNOLOGY, PERSONNEL, AND FINANCE BETWEEN BICYCLE AND MOTOR CAR COMPANIES. PIONEER RACING DRIVERS, MOTORING JOURNALISTS AND AUTOMOBILE EVENT ORGANISERS TENDED TO HAVE CUT THEIR TEETH IN THE WORLD OF CYCLING. OFFICIALS IN THE EARLY MOTORING BODIES OFTEN KEPT ON WORKING FOR CYCLING ORGANISATIONS. Writing in his 1988 social history _The Automobile Age_, motoring historian James J. Flink made a brief, little noticed claim: > No preceding technological innovation – not even the internal > combustion engine – was as important to the development of the > automobile as the bicycle. Engage reverse gear. Not even the internal combustion engine! Quite some claim. Flink didn’t back up his claim with pages of evidence. Ishall now do so.
Motor car manufacturers benefitted from products, production techniques, materials, innovations and tooling either developed specifically for cycles, or perfected for them. “Cycles” rather than “bicycles” because some of the technological developments used on the first motor cars – such as differential gearing – were lifted from tricycles. And, in the late 1880s, from a quadricycle came the knuckle-bone axle, a key development used on many of the early motor cars, and which, before the patent ran out in 1907, made Sterling Elliott a wealthy man. Elliott, whom Thomas Edison called a “genius,” was a bicycle magazine publisher and, in 1896, the president of the League of American Wheelmen. Elliott’s knuckle-bone concept was developed for a four-wheel cycle designed for his wife …CHOOSE A CHAPTER

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
BIOGRAPHY
Carlton Reid has been a journalist for 28 years. His work has appeared in _National Geographic Traveller_ and _The Guardian_ and many other magazines and newspapers. He is the executive editor of BikeBiz.com , a monthly trade magazine which he founded (and sold to Intent Media in 2006). He is also comms for the Bicycle Association and the BA’s Bike Hub levy fund. In 1997 he was the co-owner and editor/publisher of _On Your Bike_ magazine, a magazine for family and “born-again” cyclists, which was sold to EMAP of Peterborough in December 1999. (EMAP turned the general interest, non-Lycra magazine into a mountain bike magazine – it soon folded, and not in a good way.) His previous books include _Adventure Mountain Biking_ (Crowood Press, 1990); _Complete Book of Cycling_ (contributor, Hamlyn 1997); _I-Spy Bicycles_ (Michelin 1998); _Discover Israel_ (Berlitz 1998); _Lebanon: A Travel Guide_ (Kindlife 1995); _Classic Mountain Bike Routes of the World_ (contributor, Quarto Publishing, 2000) and _Bike to Work Book_ (November 2008). He was co-manager of the first ever British mountain bike team. This team competed in the World Championships in Villard de Lans, France, in 1987. In June 2008, he was inducted into the MBUK Mountain Bike Hall of Fame, one of the first 20 inductees. He got into mountain biking after a mid-1980s failed attempt to cycle around the world on a Claud Butler Majestic touring bike (he got as far as Israel and then decided to cycle tour the deserts of the Middle East for a year on one of them new-fangledmountain bikes).
