Answer
The Wright Brothers much like modern day skater punks. Kids. They were swept up in the bycycling craze of the 1880s and 90s, Wilbur in particular loved whipping along country roads on his bike, flying along.
Flying has been on people's minds since they first got cr^pped on by birds overhead. Towards the goal of flight people have been experimenting with wings & balloons & kites since ancient times but for the sake of santity we shall concentrate on the hundred years from that December day in 1903 when they became truly airborn.
First balloons and then gliders were launched into the sky and as children Orville and Wilbur ready avidly about gliding clubs and baloonist. Headstrong & idealistic they had little interest in balloons but gliders fascinated them. In their teens they took their love of bycyling to the next level by becming bike manufacturers & dealers. Their business was succesful enough to pursue their interest in flight. Their passion for flight fueled by bycylcing trips that feeling of near flight when one is on a bike.
In fact the earliest impulse having achieved flight was to apply the lessons for steering a bike to the steering of an aircraft but that is a topic unto itself.

What can Indiana Tourists in Sacramento do? May 23th to June 7th?
Sharon Coh
Need ideas for my houseguests to do in the coming weeks. They are both young women, nearly 30, and I'm (quite) a bit older and working everyday. They'll be on their own most days.
I need to offer suggestions for low cost adventures within half a day's travel. They have a car, camping equipment and very little money! They have equipment for fishing and camping. I don't even know what fish are in season or where they could catch them! Boat rentals, kayaking, etc. would be great if I only knew where to send them. They are from Indiana so the natural sights, sounds and creatures of California are very entertaining if I only knew where they'll find the greatest fun.
Your ideas would be appreciated.
Answer
I always recommend auburn areas to visitors that are into nature, exploring, camping and stuff!
If you take hwy 80 east exit in the town of auburn and continue on 49 and let it wind around and down to the bridge go right on the bridge that will send you into the heart of the gold mining/ rush areas and beautiful areas to hike in!
Also some of the all time best hiking and mountain biking is a few exits past the auburn exit and it is called "foresthill" (you can also connect to it by going straight instead of right at the bridge) if you get off the freeway and make a right you will cross one of the biggest bridges in Calif. or is it in the U.S? I forget anyways thats a sight they have to see! (they also filmed a scene from that vindiesel movie there xxx??) anyways one of my favorite spots Ive been going to since I was a kid is at the end of the bridge there is a mountain top there if you park at the basin of that (back side) and hike up you may loose a breath at some of the views and the eagles and hawks sowring. ( we flied out gliders there as a kid) anyways should they venture up Foresthill a ways there are tones of comping spots mosquito ridge, devils hole (i like the views and peace here) , lower and upper meadows and a couple of other ones in the area that may be better but I cant give away all the goods! lol good luck! tell em its all about exploring up there just like they did a hundred years ago! you can never go wrong in those parts!
dang now i wanna go! lol need a tour guide? let me know!haha
also don't forget the central coast and northern coast too if they can make it, SO BEAUTIFUL! I know these don't sound like day drives but they can be! when my wife and I need to get away and have no time to do so........... we do it in a day! :) we did Ukia to Mendocino coast and down the coast (1) last weekend got home late but it was worth it! :) enjoy, have fun, be safe! email for more details, no worries!
