Example: Yes, I did have access to a bike as a child. My mother owned the bicycle, so I often borrowed it to ride around our neighborhood and visit friends. Because it was an old but sturdy bike, I felt confident exploring nearby streets safely.

× When I was a child, I don't have.
✓ When I was a child, I didn't have one.
The sentence refers to a past time 'When I was a child' so it requires past tense. 'don't have' is present tense and incorrect here. Use past simple 'didn't have'. Also include the object 'one' (a bike) for clarity.
× Mother had a bike so I used to borrow from him and roam around the city.
✓ My mother had a bike, so I used to borrow it and roam around the city.
The original uses 'Mother' without possessive 'my' and uses the wrong pronoun 'him' to refer to a bike (which is an object). Use 'my mother' for natural English and 'it' to refer to the bike. The comma before 'so' improves readability.
× In our country especially commuter models because they are very fuel efficient and affordable in my country.
✓ In our country, commuter models are especially popular because they are very fuel-efficient and affordable.
The original sentence is fragmented and repeats 'in my country'. Reorder to form a complete sentence: subject 'commuter models' + verb 'are' + complement 'especially popular', and remove repetition. Hyphenate 'fuel-efficient' as a compound adjective.
× So commuter models are very popular in our country and also some kind of people may buy other adventure and.
✓ So commuter models are very popular in our country, and some people buy other types of bikes for adventure.
The original sentence is ungrammatical and ends abruptly. Replace 'some kind of people' with 'some people', and 'other adventure and' with 'other types of bikes for adventure' to complete the idea. Use a comma before 'and' linking two independent clauses.
