Why do boys play video games instead of riding bikes in structured environments with helmets and pads? Why to they gane instead of go illegally camping in off0limits environmentally sensitive habitat? Why game rather than be arrested for a slingshot or BB gun? Why game instead of play sports where winning makes you a taunting bully?

It truly is a mystery.

It has been a mystery to me why only girls (including ours) ride bikes around here. All the same streets are here as when I was a kid and not many of the girls wear helmets. The boys only seem to want to ride those silly scooters and skateboards later on. I just built one of my girls a banana seat wheelie bike and she thinks it's neat. The other girl has a Kawasaki dirt bike already. I can think of only one boy around here who could handle that with their lack of bike experience.
