I am 36 years old single mother. I have kid. He is 12 years old and he wants to practice bicycling. He never had a bicycle before. I must decide will I let him practice it or not. Can you tell me something about the bicycling benefits? Is it dangerous and in what way?

Dear madam, you should be happy that your son wants to exercise. The most kids I know only want to seat in front of TV or computer. bicycling is healthy. It will help him with his endurance and strength. It is also good for his mental health. He should first exercise alone but later he has to take a coach. It is not dangerous sport. He must stretch before the start. He should also worm up his muscles every time he practice.
