A classic car is an older automobile; the exact definition varies around
the world. The common theme is of an older car with enough historical interest
to be collectable and worth preserving or restoring rather than scrapping.
Cars 100 years and older typically fall into the antique class. Organizations
such as the Classic Car Club of America (CCCA) and the Antique Automobile
Club of America (AACA) maintain a list of eligible unmodified cars that
are called "classic".
These are described as "fine" or "distinctive" automobile, either
American or foreign built, produced between 1915-1925 and 1942-1948.
Vehicles for human transport that have two wheels and require balancing
by the rider date back to the early 19th century. The first means of transport
making use of two wheels arranged consecutively, and thus the archetype
of the bicycle, was the German draisine dating back to 1817. The term bicycle
was coined in France in the 1860s.
There are several early but unverified claims for the invention of bicycle-like
machines. The earliest comes from a sketch said to be from 1493 and attributed
to Gian Giacomo Caprotti, a pupil of Leonardo da Vinci.
In 1998 Hans-Erhard Lessing described this as a purposeful fraud. However,
the authenticity of the bicycle sketch is still vigorously maintained by
followers of Prof. Augusto Marinoni, a lexicographer and philologist, who
was entrusted by the Commissione Vinciana of Rome with the transcription
of da Vinci's Codex Atlanticus.
With their power and beauty horses have had a long association with humans. Today there are only two surviving subspecies of wild horse: Przewalski's horse, or Mongolian wild horse, and the common domesticated horse.

Autumn, especially in poetry, has often been associated with melancholia. The possibilities of summer are gone, and the chill of winter is on the horizon. Skies turn grey, and many people turn inward, both physically and mentally.
