This sentence mixes present tense 'have' with past-time reference 'when I was a child.' Use past tense 'had' and 'enjoyed' for past events. Also simplify informal filler 'was like' and use 'riding it' instead of repeating 'driving my bike.' Suggestion: keep verb tenses consistent for past events and remove filler words.

✓ Yes, of course, bicycles are very popular in our country, the Philippines, because most people use bikes when they go to the market, to school, or even to work.
Several problems: 'it's very much popular' is unnatural; use 'are very popular' to match plural subject 'bicycles' (subject-verb agreement). 'it is a most of the people' is incorrect structure; use 'most people.' Use plural 'bikes' and 'use' instead of 'they're using' for general habits (simple present). Also add prepositions 'to the market/school/work' for clarity and correct word order. Suggestion: use simple present for habitual actions and ensure subject and verb agree. Grammar problem type ID:1
× So it's very useful in our country.
✓ So they are very useful in our country.
The pronoun 'it' incorrectly refers to plural 'bikes'; use plural pronoun 'they' and plural verb 'are.' Maintain agreement in number between pronoun and antecedent. Suggestion: match pronoun number to the noun it replaces. Grammar problem type ID:12
