Relative pronoun "that"!
Is there is any difference between (that & Who) or (that & which)? I mean like:
-this is the man who talked to me / this is the man that talked to me.
-Our house which has a red door needs painting / Our house that has a red door needs painting.
Is there is any kind of difference in meaning?I think that there is a slight difference and I would like to use "that" most the time.

-The bicycle is becoming very popular.
We're here speaking about bicycles in general which represented by (the bicycle). Since it's in general, why we put (the)?
I think that the following sentences make sense more than the first one:
- bicycle is becoming very popular.
- bicycles are becoming very popular.
