No. you would be unable to walk, jog, run or ride if it wernt for friction. one of the most powerful and fundimental forces on Earth. Friction Causes Heat and Heat Allows for grip. life would be very difficult to live without friction.
Saying that, life would be no fun if there was friction everywhere... the last place you want friction is somewhere like a giant waterslide of something lol

What types of friction occur when you ride a bike through a puddle?
Fluid Friction, & Rolling Friction.
Does rolling or sliding friction enables you to ride a bike without skidding and falling?
Sliding Friction
Why is friction needed to be able to ride a bike?
Because when we ridind the bike faster to slow down the brake is important
Why isn't thermal energy wasted during a bike ride?
Thermal energy is produced during a bike ride. It is produced by the body, which is why you sweat, the friction between all moving parts of the bike and even between the tyres and the road

What types of friction occur while you ride a bike through a puddle?
You would experience fluid friction and rolling friction, and since you are not likely to be completely submerged, air resistance.
Where should there be low friction when riding a mountain bike?
i think you need the most friction in your feet and handsIt's hard to say where you'd need the mostfriction, as riding a bike requires several thingsto work together. And in each of those places you need enough friction.-you can't ride if tires will slip too badly on the ride surface-you can't ride if tires will slip too badly on the rims-you can't ride if wheels won't stay in the frame/fork-you can't ride if you can't stay on the bike
Does sliding friction occur when you ride a bike?
Yes, in the seals around the bearings, in any suspension element you might have, by the brake pads and so on.
What are two ways that friction is helpful and harmful when riding a bike?
Friction can be both harmful and helpful. Without friction the tires of the bike could not push against the ground to move forward, and the brakes would not stop the bike. However, friction can cause parts of the bike and the tires to wear down. Also, to overcome the friction between the tires and the road you need to pedal harder to go faster.friction is helpful to stop the bike when you put on the brakes but it may be harmful by slowing your speed down. and if you hit the brakes hard at a sudden moment, you could tumble or flip
Which parts of a bike use friction?
The brakes use friction to stop the bike and the tyres use friction to grip the road.
Can you ride a 70cc dirt bike on the street?
