We have a cycle training ground for kids -- and for adults who haven't
grown up -- in the town park. It consists of a series of concrete ramps
you can ride up and jump down from. Kids are trained but the pain of
their falls. Much more effective.

Over here we call that a skate park.

We have multiple kiddie bicycle entertainment venues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_qMfS_Io08 (used to be a bowling alley). Look at all those rug rats! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcqNvotLPrQ They also run them around on the track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmCe099jt5g&t=26s (I like the guy climbing up the bank at 1:35).

I don't know if it gets kids on the streets, but at least it is some sort of outlet and teaches physical skills. I don't know if it sucks the fun out of riding -- it might if daddy or mommy is some sort of little league parent.
