As a kid, I always wondered about that. 😊

I always wondered about bicycles too.  I collided painfully with the frame many times and wished, at that moment, that I had a girl's bike.

Thats the truth. I never like horses, but I understand the bicycle issue. It alwaus seemed they were made backwards. The "boys bike" design could definitely do serious damage! ... but as a kid, I wasn't going to be caught on a "girl's bike"!  :grin:

Yes.  I only felt that way at that moment of impact...

None of our cars when I was a kid had seat belts.  The new ones did.  We didn't have new cars.  I never heard of a bicycle helmet... our skate boards were skate wheels screwed into a one by board...
