Monument to the Inventor of Bicycle Efim Artamonov

Monument to the inventor of the bicycle

Was the inventor of the bicycle from Yekaterinburg or somewhere else in Russia. Records seem to so indicate. The debate continues.

In Vaynera street

Dedicated to Efim Artamonov although I could not find supporting information whether he was the inventor of bicycle. Someone should write in Wiki? ;-)

Fun little stop for photo

As with a lot of the stops in around Ekat.. This is just one of those fun little photo ops for travelers to have fun with something interesting.

Vaynera Street - Lots of monuments

Just walk down the Vaynera street you can see several monuments and sculptures and old buildings both side of the street. Love statue, Sculpture Korebeynik,Monument Friends, Monument to Banker, Monume...

Bicycles!

It's just a statue, but I like the way many Russian towns are filling their city centres with metalwork. I never knew the first bicycle was invented here, but anyway, it's a nice sculpture to take you...
