The fallacy present in the argument is False Analogy. This type of fallacy occurs when an argument is based on an analogy that is not sufficiently strong or relevant, implying that two things are alike in significant ways when they are not. In this case, comparing running a business to riding a bicycle oversimplifies the complexities and variables involved in managing a business, suggesting that because one can learn to ride a bicycle, they can also manage a business successfully without recognizing the differences between the two activities.
What fallacy is present in this argument: "Running a business is exactly like riding a bicycle. Once you learn how, you'll never fail."?
