Motorbicycle (Pronounced Motor Bicycle) is an anthropomorphic Greek god that allegedly dwells in both the physical and digital world. Historically and in recent times, many supposed sightings of the creature have been detailed, but forensic scientists and zoologists have not been able to confirm the authenticity of these claims.
History

While the exact origin of Motorbicycle is unknown, the creature has been referenced by many cultures throughout history. The earliest known mention of it comes from the year 1213 in the Magnus Cartus, a failed charter of human rights that preceded the better known Magna Carta. Translated from its original Latin, it states "Those whose lives are affected by the haunted wheels shall be, upon presenting proof, granted restitution by the government a sum equal to or exceeding the damages dealt." Historians have since determined that the term haunted wheels refers to Motorbicycle. The updated charter did not include this term, and it is speculated that the government could not afford to pay for the damages, which were increasing at a rapid rate at the time of its publication. It has been documented in salvaged newspapers from the time that the government attempted to dismiss Motorbicycle as a myth, but rumors of its existence continued to propagate well into the future, with some people even claiming to meet the creature in person. A short-lived religion called Motorbicycism, was followed by a small but vocal group of people, and its followers described the figure as "Godlike" and "Kind in nature" according to recovered scripture. This, along with a reduction in mysterious damage and terror helped to shift public perception of the creature to a more positive light.

It is generally accepted by most historians that a figure resembling Motorbicycle was spotted numerous times in early 1458 by citizens in Athens, Greece after its fall to the Ottoman Empire. This historical account was documented in the journal of Sultan Mehmed II, where he described the figure as "A generous creature who provided gifts to families in need after the war." This further supported theories that Motorbicycle was not truly malicious, and sparked a legion of followers that eventually led to its indoctrination into Greek culture. Many prominent figures of the time reported spotting the figure after the string of sightings in 1458, but these are often disputed, as many were very similar the Sultan's account. By the year 1500, the status of Motorbicycle was so legendary that there was talk of turning it into a Greek god. In January of 1505, a bill was drafted that would allow Motorbicycle to be inducted to the hall of gods, and was unanimously approved by the council. Every witness at the induction ceremony stated that they saw the god watching the event from afar, and that it appeared to be "Visibly happy".
Works of many influential people, including figures such as Isaac Newton and Leonardo Da Vinci, contain references to Motorbicycle.
