Example: Yes, bicycles are quite popular in my country because they are cheap and convenient for short trips. For example, many people rent bikes through city-sharing programs when they don't own one.
× I like to ride it a lot when I had free time.
✓ I liked to ride it a lot when I had free time.
The sentence mixes present tense 'I like' with past time reference 'when I had free time'. Use past tense 'liked' to keep tense consistent with the context of childhood. Suggestion: match verb tense to the time frame mentioned; use 'liked' or say 'I like to ride it a lot when I have free time' if speaking about present habits.
× Yes, I think that bicycles are quite popular in my country and sometimes when people even do not have an opportunity to buy their own bike, they prefer to rent it because they consider that.
✓ Yes, I think that bicycles are quite popular in my country, and sometimes when people do not have the opportunity to buy their own bike, they prefer to rent one because they consider it more practical.
The original sentence has awkward word order and an incomplete clause 'because they consider that.' Improve clarity by removing unnecessary 'even', simplifying 'do not have an opportunity' to 'do not have the opportunity', and replacing the vague 'that' with a clear phrase such as 'it more practical'. Also add a comma before 'and' to separate clauses. Suggestion: simplify phrases and complete the reason clause for clarity.
