Solution

Actually we are applying torque to bicycle wheel, because of that torque bicycle wheel is rotating. Now when bicycle rotate on ground, because of friction it applies some force on ground. Now because of the reaction from ground (Newton's third law), ground also apply force to bicycle wheel. Because of this force bicycle and hence the wheel will have linear motion.
