Road quality in 1600s would make it quite difficult I think.

The reason I linked a bike above was that they truly are a modern marvel. So unassuming and yet so flexible, reliable and overall... powerful, plus cheap by modern standards. A bike is probably the most accessible high tech modern invention that we take for granted.
I think the only qualitative difference would be that modern roads are usable all year whereas natural tracks are generally gonna get unusable when it rains a lot.
It's incredible that we have machines that can take that kind of a beating, while also having precision components on them, and also being light enough to pick up in 1 hand, and being affordable to the poorest members of society.
