I know I'm responding to the analogy, not the article, but even so... yes, if you find someone who somehow managed not to try to ride a bike as a kid, they often can just do it on the first try as an adult. Bikes also have been proven over many years... if your bike riding fails, you know it is not the concept of a bicycle that is flawed.

So the analogy fails. As does their logic. They are asking us to invent the bicycle, not to ride it.
