i help you stay grounded when speeds are high
though im not a bird i can still make you fly
im often found on the back not the front
what am i that gives your ride a cool stunt
- I see what you did there.
  
  I also understand
What's in my pocket?
- It isn't fair, my precious, is it, to ask us what it's got in it's nassty little pocketsess?
The poor have it
The rich need it
If you eat it, you will die
She comes sometimes at need,
But never at your heed.
To meet with her is jolly,
To push her would be folly.
Who is she?
edit: for bonus points, I first came across this with a second step in the puzzle. Not a riddle, but a different kind of puzzle. Solve this:

Though that's not the same text I had the first time (it was in a D&D game and the text was related to that), the same technique would need to be applied to read the above text. The riddle's solution is relevant.
- My app doesn't support spoilers so I don't know if this has worked. Maybe collapse this comment if you don't want to see it, just in case.
  
  Edit: fixed maybe? Thanks @Zagorath@aussie.zone
  
  You gotta do ::: spoiler [spoiler description] on the first line (most of the time, that means ::: spoiler Spoilers or similar.
  
  the edit worked
  there's also, if you're interested, a second part of the puzzle that I edited into the above. It's not a riddle though so feel free to ignore.
- Luck?
Three women are sitting at a parlour eating iced cream.
One is Licking the cone.
One is sucking the cone.
One is biting the cone.
Which one is married?
- The one with the wedding ring.
