Bikes can also be kind of dangerous though. People have suffered bad injuries because of injuries caused by bikes. I use to live in Durham North Carolina where some parts were busier than others. North Carolina also has a lot of big dirt roads and fields of green grass so there was a lot of riding area for anybody to have a good time. There are also a lot of places you can ride here in Philadelphia, almost in every school yard and the great parks of the city.
Safety is also a issue with a lot of the youth.
You can be very skilled but you still have to put on protective wear. The protective wear should not be considered a fashion statement just wear that protect you from any harm that comes to your body. Because I would rather suit up than to get damage done to any part of my body. Please also use a helmet because it is the most important thing to wear.
