What is cyclist? How to use in English

The term "cyclist" has its roots in the late 19th century, when the sport of cycling was becoming increasingly popular in Europe and the United States. The word "cyclical" was already in use to describe the motion of a bicycle wheel, but it wasn't until the 1860s that the term "cyclist" emerged to describe the person operating one. The word is derived from the Greek word "kyklos," meaning "wheel," and the suffix "-ist," which is used to form nouns that indicate a person or agent. The first recorded use of "cyclist" in the English language was in 1868, in a newspaper article in the Daily Telegraph. Initially, the term was used to describe the riders of velocipedes, early versions of bicycles with wooden wheels. As the sport of cycling evolved and became more widespread, the term "cyclist" became a generic term to describe anyone who rode a bicycle, whether for recreation or competition.
