What is the right BMX gearing for a 12 tooth freewheel?

The right gearing for a 12 tooth freewheel won't be found in any article written by a competent and knowledgeable bike person. That's because there are other factors (variables) that must be considered when selecting gears. The leg strength of the rider, the crank length and even the length of a rider's leg and how quickly he can spin the cranks will factor in. And the course will demand some additional considerations to insure the bike is set up to give the rider an optimum shot at edging the competition. On the surface, this might not seem helpful, and it really doesn't specifically provide a number you can use to go out and get a chain ring with that many teeth on it. But if you're shorter and can spin the cranks quickly, you'll be running a tooth or two less than a taller, "slower spinning" rider. And only experience at the track or a course will allow you to "feel" what works best for your abilities and riding style. As a parting thought, many races are won and lost in the gate. This means that if you're racing, you can't run a big ring because the guys with the smaller rings will leave you at the line and you'll spend the rest of the race trying to catch them. Perhaps you have enough to now think about the problem and navigate your way to a solution that fits you.

Why is it considered less safe to ride your bike while crossing the road?

A child might have more difficulty in crossing the road while bike riding than in walking the bike across the road. A child might be scared by cars, trucks, or animals while crossing the road and have an accident. If the child walks the bike across the road, there is less of a chance of an accident. It depends on the age of the child, how good a bike rider the child is, and how dangerous are the roads in the neighborhood. Some roads are like highways and a child riding their bike across the roads is far more likely to have an accident than a child who rides their bike across quiet roads.

anywhere you can ride a bike, public roads, mountain biking trails in Forrest parks ect, but venue to me suggests you want to know about a velodrome which is the 'venue' for track cycling meets.

contact a local cycling club to find your nearest one, and ideas on good places to ride (cycle) outdoors.

36h or 46 h bike rims?

Depends on what kind of riding you're looking to do. 36H will stand up to just about anything "normal", and if you want a 46H rim yo will most likely have to order it custom drilled. You can however get 48H rims, but they are pretty much only seen on tandems, some BMX bikes, and (very) occasionally on bikes built for loaded touring. But whatever rim you get, make sure you get a hub to match.
