Bicycle - Banned
Time: 1934
Place: Aigle, Switzerland
Details: In 1934, the Union Cycliste Internationale banned recumbent bicycles from all forms of officially sanctioned racing, at the behest of the conventional bicycle industry, after relatively little-known Francis Faure beat world champion Henri Lemoine and broke Oscar Egg's Hour record by half a mile while riding Mochet's Velocar.
