Are BMX bikes okay to just ride without doing tricks?
I'm planning on buying a bike once I move to Chicago and I really like the look/style of bmx bikes. I was wondering if it would be okay to use one to just ride/cruise around the city. Chicago is pretty much flat so I won't have to worry about hills really. Not planning on doing any long distance riding really, and you can take bikes on the train in Chi if I wanted to go somewhere else. I'm 5'11 and around...175 pounds-ish. Average size I guess. Knowing what inch bike I should get would be nice too. Thanks, let me know. 
better get a 24in bmx i am 5'3" and i ride 20in and its harder to peddal on a bmx

How To ride a Bike?
I know that this may seem a little sad but i dont know how to ride a bike and my son wants to ride a bike he is 11 years old and dosent know either. He already bought a 20" rampage Next BMX bike with no training wheels. He says that he dosent want to remove the pedels either. He also says that he wants to learn on this bike only.... Please help me! how should he learn?! Ps: he says he wants no help from me.... Only good awnswers first good awnswer gets best awnser!
The hardest part of riding a bike is getting started. The next hardest part is gaining confidence. Unfortunately, these two things are also the most essential parts to bike riding.
The getting started part is the most essential. In order to maintain balance on a bike, it has to be moving fast enough for the bike to "self-sustain". It's a little to do with physics, at this point. The faster you can get going, the easier the bike will be to balance.
This is where the second hard and essential part kicks in. You have to have the confidence to just do it. Forget the fact that you'll probably fall the first few times... just do it. The more aggressively you attack it, the better chance you have of staying balanced.
Once you get moving fast enough, it's just a matter of using your body's weight and SLIGHT adjustments to keep upright. If you feel yourself tipping, the instinctual reaction is to jerk the other direction... this will tip you off balance the OTHER direction (also knows as over-compensating). If you begin to tilt to one side, gently correct to the opposite side that you are tipping. GENTLY correct, keep in mind.
If you follow these tips, you'll be riding in a day or two. The key is just to have the confidence to keep your speed high enough for the bike to balance. The rest will follow!
