I wish they had this in Miami. I'm part of the 8% and definitely am afraid of falling. Thats why I never continued to try to learn as a child. I feel like I've always missed out :'(
Awe man good luck👍.... Its real inspiring of U to comment to me as being part of this group esp since you're a sista.... I'm going to try & face my fear of this as well... Thank U& Happy New Yr✊😊
Never had a bike, parents didn't care, never learned. I'm 21 and it's just so embarrassing that I don't want to go out in public and allow my fiancee to teach me. He's like the only person who knows besides my family who love to joke about it if it ever gets brought up.
Being the only person in the family that "can't ride a bike" is embarrassing. Both my sisters were taught how to ride but when it came to me there was no bike. I finally learned aged 53 with some free local council lessons. My husband can't understand why I can't do simple the manoeuvres that he takes for granted and it knocked my confidence a little. I now go out on my own for half an hour at a time and forget about how silly I look!
It is about interest. We had a bike. I learned but my brother didn't. My father helped me learn it. My brother didn't want to learn so he wasn't forced.
Im always pressured into doing biking and i have a giant fear of it and since i have the lack of confidence and depression its very hard to learn, i just tried today and i cant even get on it and when i fell i instantly gave up and almost cried because i can never learn anything without giving up but i dont want my parents to see me cry so i just have a weird face with watery eyes trying not to talk and since i had a personal incident im literally sad all the time I used to be this confident and proud person who can take care of herself but society let me down, i have been pressured and bullied too much
@@hanablie2765 yes, but the lack of confidence is what really keeps me away from doing things like karate, on the bright side, I love drawing and writing stories
I’m glad this video exists, and more so, that the instructor exists and is willing to help those of us in that 8%. I feel less alone, less embarrassed now.
I'm 45 and never learned. Just taught my 10 yr old to ride (the irony). He's egging me on to learn because he wants to ride with me. So, I got a bike that fits me. Changed out the seat and the stem so I'm comfortable and can control the bike better.
Personally I find that more impressive I can’t skate lol if my life depends on it I hope you get rid of your fear and beat it your the best and you’ll be great
36 and can't ride a bike because when i was little i was bought a bike but was terrified and so never learned . Also I can't swim because I hated swimming when I was in school and don't care to learn to swim but maybe I should buy myself a bike one day and learn.
Welcome to all 🙏🙏🙏 Dear friends : Iam 16 , still doesn't have any interest to ride vehicles . I have completed my 10th std this year . It feels very shame for me when even a 10 year old boy rides bike enjoying the road . Now , I have been learning to drive scooty & bike .........past 3 days during Quarantine . Iam having fear to ride vehicles ....... So , I finally request anyone to give you're suggestions ........ & wanted you to be honest ...... Please tell me when will I learn to drive bike or scooty properly ??? .
I learned to ride a bike when I was 13(2008) with the help of my female friend, and the last time I ride a bike was 2013 LOL . Hope I still have the muscle memory
i learned how to ride a bike as a kid but i stopped riding as i got older and forgot all about how to… i have a new bike now and im going to practice again
Some people don’t know how to ride a bike. Some people don’t know how to drive a stick. I’m one of the ones who can’t drive stick, but can ride a bike cross states.
I wish that was available where I live in Northampton, U.K.! I'm currently 44 and have never been able to ride a bike (I wasn't allowed to, as kid growing up in North West London. I attempted it as 14, but couldn't do both peddling and balancing at the same time). I have below average hearing, so I wonder if that has made my situation much worse? I was encouraged to go one a motorcycle training and compulsory basic training course this month. As you can imagine, I had "balance issues" on both a moped and 125cc bike and wasn't asked to progress to doing the C.B.T. course. I was devastated, as it is still a lifelong ambition to be a Biker. I was advised by the instructor to go and learn how to ride a bicycle first, which put me right back to square one. I thought, "Well, if I haven't managed to achieve learning how to ride a bicycle in 44 years, it might be impossible to achieve that now!" Your video was very nice and I think all of those lucky people in the video were really grateful for that opportunity.
I already learned how to ride the bicycle when i was at 3 years old with training wheel. Then i was 7 or 8 years old ride bicycle without training wheels first time
I never learned to ride a bike mostly because my parents couldn't afford to buy me a bike when I was a kid plus I have a poor sense of balance. I wish I could ride a bike.
I’ll be 43 near the end of the year, and I still can’t ride a bike. I was always afraid of falling, and the seat never felt comfortable to me, so I said forget it. I wish I knew how to ride though.

Tricycles are harder to control, go way slower, and have a greater learning curve. It would be better for you as a person to just get familiar with a bike even if it takes you weeks.
True story. Never learned to ride a bike and decided it was time to learn. So, I went out and bought a bike. I could ride it almost immediately. Took me about 10 seconds to learn by myself
everyone, literally everyone has been teaching me for 10 YEARS and I still can't ride a bike 🥲. It's kinda weird but I'm actually scared of bikes ever since a big mountain bike ran over me when I was a kid and had to get A LOT of stitches lol
That’s not weird. Trauma can absolutely affect our psyche. I’ve had accidents of all kinds, including on a bike and an electric scooter. I’m 34 and just learning how to ride for real. It’s terrifying but I’m doing it! You can too!!
I’m 17 this year and I don’t know how to drive bicycles, my parents didn’t care about me being like this and it’s very embarrassing, everyone ages around me or less know how to drive motorcycles already.
Here are some tips i have: One: don't cycle too slow, it might seem scary at first but it helps with staying in balans. Two: don't overcompensate too much when you go to one side. Three: practice on a flat cerface with no other trafic. Good luck with learning to ride a bike👍
boy boy it’s fine if you can’t ride a bike. There is no reason for you to have to ride a bike! Like I just skipped my schools bike ability and nobody cares. You’ll be able to do many other things
@@westonandhunter8455 Oh I can do it now. I’m 22 and I can ride without even holding onto the handles. I’m just saying that when I was very little I was kinda pressured into learning how to do it.
A boy who lived across the street from me well his dad finally taught him how to ride a bike at the age of 11 and I was like what and why so old - I guess it's lazy parenting!
This actually makes me appreciate my ability to ride a bike, something I'd never really thought about.
I wish they had this in Miami. I'm part of the 8% and definitely am afraid of falling. Thats why I never continued to try to learn as a child. I feel like I've always missed out :'(

you too. I feel a little bit better knowing I'm not the only person that is not really good at riding a bike.

Same story , and I am a male which is even more embrassing
It is about interest. We had a bike. I learned but my brother didn't. My father helped me learn it. My brother didn't want to learn so he wasn't forced.
He should have been. Children are poor decision makers.
So glad I learned when I was a kid. Riding a road bike next to the river on a sunny day is one of my favorite feelings
I don't know how to ride a bicycle and am 20 yrs. It's so embarrassing. 😭😭😭
I learned how to ride when I was 10 or 9 I use to steal my neighbor's bike and I used to ride 1 years bike 😂😂😂
Im always pressured into doing biking and i have a giant fear of it and since i have the lack of confidence and depression its very hard to learn, i just tried today and i cant even get on it and when i fell i instantly gave up and almost cried because i can never learn anything without giving up but i dont want my parents to see me cry so i just have a weird face with watery eyes trying not to talk and since i had a personal incident im literally sad all the time

@@jackiechan3202 then work on these things you know it's not necessary to learn how to bike or karate but drawing is so cool I love you ❤✨😉

lower the seat...but lift it up again soon when you can easier on knees

my parents wanted to teach me, I was scared, and then I learned the skateboard, huge confidence boost
Personally I find that more impressive I can’t skate lol if my life depends on it I hope you get rid of your fear and beat it your the best and you’ll be great
@@mannamedisaak3316 ahaha three months later i totally forgot about trying to bike
Just a question, is it almost impossible for a newbie to learn to skate on a cracked and rocky road?
@@zsch6859 yes, unless you have soft wheels and can take your foot off the the board a lot to power over stuff
To be honest skateboard is far more harder than bicycle or at least that's what I think
36 and can't ride a bike because when i was little i was bought a bike but was terrified and so never learned . Also I can't swim because I hated swimming when I was in school and don't care to learn to swim but maybe I should buy myself a bike one day and learn.
Try riding right next to a river. That way you can learn to ride and if you fall off, you can learn to swim.

😂
Once you know ypu wont forget.But you might take few minutes to remember.
I'm over 40 n want to learn now, but seems so hard to me 😥
ONLY 8% WTF?
I learned to ride a bike when I was 4. My dad still has the VHS footage from the 80's 😂
Lucky you!
Awesome keep it safe
I learned when I was 6 and I remember me and my family used to bike ride around our apartment complex
If only we had such a thing in India
"Without knowing exactly how it happened."
They should just make adult training wheels
Seriously? 😂
I would dig that
I belong to the 8% 😂

I'm 52 and just starting to learn. I am so worried about someone tearing my efforts down I am learning inside my flat,which isnt ideal!!!
Where this school is . I would like to learn . I m 67 years old .
I already learned how to ride the bicycle when i was at 3 years old with training wheel. Then i was 7 or 8 years old ride bicycle without training wheels first time
I'm pretty much self taught too
I never learned to ride a bike mostly because my parents couldn't afford to buy me a bike when I was a kid plus I have a poor sense of balance. I wish I could ride a bike.
This is so great!I really want to learn to ride too:-(
It's never too late! :) I just learned to ride today and I'm 23 years old
Get a bike, that's how you learn.
Any bike as long as it fits you, size wise.
Candy B thats emmbarresing
Same here and I'm 32
I learned by my self it took me a month I'm 11
I’ll be 43 near the end of the year, and I still can’t ride a bike. I was always afraid of falling, and the seat never felt comfortable to me, so I said forget it. I wish I knew how to ride though.
Try to find a new bike more comfortable it'll help definitely ✨❤

The last time i rode a bike was at 2018...i hope i still remember how to ride it....
First rode my dirt bike at age 20 lol
25 and still don't know, I'll just buy a that adult tricycle or keep the training wheels on them, I really don't care.
Tricycles are harder to control, go way slower, and have a greater learning curve. It would be better for you as a person to just get familiar with a bike even if it takes you weeks.
Can they ride a bmx?
True story. Never learned to ride a bike and decided it was time to learn.
So, I went out and bought a bike. I could ride it almost immediately. Took me about 10 seconds to learn by myself
only 8% don't know.. ok. but it feels like 80% of cyclists don't understand what traffic lights mean, that's weird!
Well for me I do my best but if the light takes to long I just hit the sidewalk or crosswalk saves me so much time
everyone, literally everyone has been teaching me for 10 YEARS and I still can't ride a bike 🥲. It's kinda weird but I'm actually scared of bikes ever since a big mountain bike ran over me when I was a kid and had to get A LOT of stitches lol
That’s not weird. Trauma can absolutely affect our psyche. I’ve had accidents of all kinds, including on a bike and an electric scooter. I’m 34 and just learning how to ride for real. It’s terrifying but I’m doing it! You can too!!
I can imagine in later years it feels like Steve Carell would star in a film about you called "The 40 Year Old Who Can't Ride A Bike"
Pls place some tutorials on TH-cam, Im still struggling to learn how to ride a bike at an age of 24, I'm gonna do it!
same and im 20
I’m 17 this year and I don’t know how to drive bicycles, my parents didn’t care about me being like this and it’s very embarrassing, everyone ages around me or less know how to drive motorcycles already.
I dont know how to ride a bike...so sad..
Learned at a late age, all about steering, the secret is steering in the direction the bike is falling.
Hey Im here because I cant ride a bike I cant balance pls help me
Here are some tips i have:
One: don't cycle too slow, it might seem scary at first but it helps with staying in balans.
Two: don't overcompensate too much when you go to one side.
Three: practice on a flat cerface with no other trafic.
Good luck with learning to ride a bike👍
@@Niwan8 can u give me some tip i have trouble with changing its dierection
Glad i learned at age 8 and a half.
Glad I haven't learned today
13years old
I learned when i was 6
I learned when I was 5. I was kinda pressured into doing it though.
24 😅
I can cycle but I learnt late so everyone’s so far ahead of me
They will have to stop at traffic lights so you might catch up then.
Im 11 nd i cant ride a bike😥
It’s ok! I’m 12 and I can’t 😭 it’s so embarrassing
