What does it say about a society when a kid riding a #bike is so unusual that it results in a #YouTube channel that generates US$100,000? Or, that it’s considered so contrary to public norms that neighbors and even the police rush to condemn it? (Paywall) www.inquirer.com/life/oneway-... (khp)
He’s 11 and makes $100,000 a year riding his bike in the suburbs. Haverford police are not pleased.www.inquirer.com Oneway Lilman’s Internet-fueled fame has added a modern twist to a classic suburban struggle.

When I was a kid, we did dumb things on bikes…without helmets. Neighborhood busybodies and officials with too much time on their hands are clearly determined to take all the fun out of childhood. Oh, and I did manage to injure myself. But, I survived and learned a few lessons about physics…
