1.How often do you ride bicycles?

Once or twice a week.I still enjoy riding a bike when I go out. It's not only a convenient and eco- friendly way to travel short distances, but it also allows me to embrace the nostalgic feeling of freedom and tranquility. Additionally, cycling keeps me active and helps me stay connected to the surroundings.

2.Is it difficult to learn how to ride a bicycle?

Learning to ride a bicycle can be challenging initially, but it's generally not very difficult. It requires balancing, pedaling, and steering simultaneously, which might take some practice. Most people, especially children, pick it up quickly with guidance. Once you get the hang of it, riding a bike becomes second nature and a valuable skill that you carry throughout your life.

3.Is it popular to ride bicycles in your country?

Bicycles are widely used in my country as a common mode of transportation. They are particularly popular in urban areas, where people use them for short commutes and even for leisurely rides. Bicycles provide a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way of getting around, especially in congested city traffic.

4.When was the last time you used your bicycle?

The last time I went cycling was last weekend. I decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and explore a nearby park. It was a refreshing experience, as I hadn't cycled in a while. Riding through the trails surrounded by nature was amazing, and I enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere.

5.Do you think a bicycle is very
convenient for people to use?

I suppose as long as you can keep them stable. Yeah! Maybe if you’re very old or very young, you might need to reconsider it, because, of course, if you’re very young, then you don’t really know how they work so well… Although, you can have stabilizers on your bike. So it’s not that bad. And if you’re older as well, you might struggle to keep things upright, but the vast majority of people should be fine.

6.Will you teach your children to ride a bicycle?

Absolutely, I think teaching my kids how to ride a bicycle is really important. Not only is it a fantastic way for them to get some exercise and enjoy the outdoors, but it's also a skill that promotes independence and confidence. I remember learning to ride myself, and it was such a thrilling experience. So, I'd definitely want to share that joy with them, showing them how to balance, pedal, and eventually ride on their own. Plus, it's a great bonding activity, and there’s something special about seeing them take off for the first time!
