I'd really appreciate feedback on this mix

For everything after the recording stage: hardware/software and how you use it.

Is it about a bicycle?

Fun track, I enjoy the vocals and flow of the song. I agree with others that the snare is super tinny and I find it distracting. I assume they are samples so perhaps try swapping out a different snare sample? There is also a lot of reverb and it hides some of the subtleties of the production. In particular on the keys. It is an important part of the vibe of the song so maybe bring it in and out a bit. Perhaps modulate the depth of the reverb. Just a suggestion.

Overall, great work and thanks for sharing!

It's a very ingenious snare drum part, but I think you may have fallen in love with it! You can't feature both it and the vocal up front quite so much.

You don't have to write songs. The world doesn't want you to write songs. It would probably prefer it if you didn't. So write songs if you want to. Otherwise, please don't bore us with beefing about it. Go fishing instead.
