× Yes, I loved my biking time when I grew up and it gave me to spend a lot of time in outdoor and, uh, we also had lovely time spending time with our friends on riding bike together.
✓ Yes, I loved biking when I was growing up and it allowed me to spend a lot of time outdoors, and we also had lovely times riding bikes with our friends.
Incorrect past tense and verb usage: 'loved my biking time when I grew up' is awkward; use 'loved biking when I was growing up.' 'It gave me to spend' is incorrect; use 'it allowed me to spend.' 'in outdoor' should be 'outdoors' (adverb). 'had lovely time' requires plural 'times' for repeated occasions. 'on riding bike together' is incorrect preposition and singular; use 'riding bikes with our friends.' Suggestions: use correct past tense phrases and common collocations: 'loved biking,' 'when I was growing up,' 'allowed me to,' 'outdoors,' and pluralize countable nouns when referring to repeated events.
× So owning bike was always a fantasy for me, uh, during my childhood and it was one of the fantasies that has come true for me and uh, so I love it.
✓ So owning a bike was always a fantasy for me during my childhood, and it was one of the fantasies that came true for me, so I loved it.
Missing article and tense consistency: 'owning bike' needs the indefinite article 'a bike.' 'that has come true' should be past simple 'that came true' to match the past time frame. Also 'I love it' should be 'I loved it' to keep past narration consistent. Suggestion: include articles for singular countable nouns and keep verb tenses consistent within past narratives.
× Bikes are extremely popular in my country and I have seen many people using bikes for their normal commute to office on a daily purpose.
✓ Bikes are extremely popular in my country, and I see many people using bikes for their normal commute to the office on a daily basis.
Tense and collocation issues: 'I have seen' is acceptable but simple present 'I see' fits general statements. 'to office' needs the definite article 'the office.' 'on a daily purpose' is not a correct collocation; use 'on a daily basis.' Suggestion: prefer consistent present-tense phrasing for general facts and use correct idiomatic expressions: 'commute to the office' and 'on a daily basis.'
× And riding bike are also gives us a lot of benefits when it comes to our health and a good time spent outdoor is always a good time for our mental health.
✓ And riding bikes also gives us a lot of benefits when it comes to our health, and time spent outdoors is always good for our mental health.
Subject-verb agreement and plurality: 'riding bike are also gives' mixes plural and singular; correct subject 'riding bikes' (gerund phrase) takes singular verb 'gives' and should not use 'are.' Also 'a good time spent outdoor' is ungrammatical: remove 'a' and use 'outdoors' (adverb) and 'is always good for our mental health' is more natural. Suggestion: ensure verb form matches subject and use correct adverbial forms like 'outdoors' and avoid unnecessary articles.
