He was a pioneer of internal-combustion engines and automobile development.He invented the high-speed  petrol-engine and the first four-wheel automobile and invented the first gas-engined motorcycle in 1885, which was an engine attached to a wooden bike. That marked the moment in history when the dual development of a viable gas-powered engine and the modern bicycle collided. Born March 17, 1834 and died March 6, 1900.
