As adults the Wrights were interested in newspapers and reporting events, later, seeing the new excitement about 'safe' bicycles, they opened a sales and repair shop, 'Wright Cycle Exchange' to work on bicycles. 3 years later they started making their own 'safe bicycles'. - They apparently always had an interest in how aircraft flew, but also in how people adapted to new machinery. They felt that many aircraft builders of the period were not concentrating on control, but more on power. Their experiments and observations of how birds moved their wings led to their first successful flights.
