Man biking: medium-dark skin tone Emoji

People

A figure with medium-dark skin riding a road bike. The cyclist is shown in profile, leaning forward over the handlebars as if pedaling at a steady pace, usually depicted wearing a helmet and athletic gear.

Usage Context

This emoji is frequently used to discuss physical exercise, outdoor hobbies, or daily commutes. It is often sent to coordinate group rides or to signal that someone is busy riding their bike and cannot reply to messages immediately. It pairs naturally with other activity-based icons like ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿพโ€โ™‚๏ธ or ๐Ÿ“.

History

The bicyclist was initially introduced as a gender-neutral icon in Unicode 6.0 in 2010. The option to specify gender and skin tone was added in later updates (Unicode 7.0 and 8.0) to provide better representation for diverse athletic communities across digital platforms.
