> - No people actually riding bikes.

This is a common trope in media where nobody in the production uses a bike for transport. There are bikes there for setting, but people never use them as intended. They either just stand around them, or do this weird thing where they take their bikes out for a walk.

Except Stranger Things, but you could say bikes are essential to the plot

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas had a lot of bikes and were included in several plot lines

If we are listing games with bikes in them I feel that we should also mention the 1985 arcade game Paperboy ;)

Haha yes very true. The OG bicycle game.

Maybe there are technical challenges shooting actors sharing dialog while in motion on bicycles?

For cars this is a solved problem, and walking people are moving slowly enough for cameras to easily keep pace.

There is of course the iconic bicycle scene from Turks Fruit (1973) starring a very young Rutger Hauer and directed by Paul Verhoeven.

Plenty of American tourists standing on roads ;)

That part is realistic - the only part which is not is the lack of people shouting at them to move

And there's far too few of them :)

There aren't many bikes in that area in reality.

The alley wasn't correct. It's not a dead-end street.. :-)

You missed the part where the main character regenerates faster than Wolverine after taking a bullet
