Nonsense, LenA. Uncool kids get piles of dates.... especially if they're in good shape.
I rode bikes throughout high school in the 90s, during a decidedly "skateboard" time period. It seems like the approved disorganized sports for tens swings back and forth between bmx and skateboards, with trends specific to each discipline varying with each generation. I couldn't count on a board to quickly/easily get me a few towns over, so I was the kid with a bike with all skater friends. Still got dates, despite all of my other character flaws.
