Hello members of Steem for Indonesia, it's good to be here once again. So today, I'll be contesting in drawing a bicycle. But first of all, let me appreciate @m-fdo for this contest that gives those of us who love drawing but are not perfect the opportunity to better our skills. Thank you.

About a bicycle

A bicycle is a means of transportation that has two tires and is used only on land. Before the bicycle came about, others means of transportation were used and the bicycle was later invented to help make transportation easier. It's one of the most affordable means of transportation as it doesn't use fuel. One only needs to pump the tire, then one is fit to go. Tho you need to cycle it with your legs and control it while riding. In this current situation where fuel price is only for the rich, the bicycle has saved so many.

Steps in drawing a bicycle

• First of all, I drew the brake lever of the bicycle, followed by a long line which led to the tire of the bicycle. Then I drew the spoked and added finishing touch to it.

• The next step was to draw the crossbar and the frame of the bicycle. Followed by the pedal and the seat of the bicycle. The frame I drew by drawing a triangle upside down and I doubled it. The chain wheel was drawn by drawing a circle and making four little circles inside and I drew the pedal last.

• My next step was drawing the back tyre of the bicycle. This I did by first of all measuring the front tyre and making sure they were in the same line, then I drew a circle which was the tire and I added spokes to it. I finished drawing my bicycle by finally drawing the bicycle basket which I got by drawing a square and then adding vertical and horizontal lines to the square.

• I finally put finishing touch to my bicycle by colouring it with blue colour and shedded some parts of the bicycle like the tyres.
