Barrack Rd Bike Bus

All aboard the Barrack Road Bike Bus 🚲🚌 😁. Join us every Friday morning for safer group cycle to Christchurch Infants & Juniors and the Priory School.

‘Bus’ stop no.4! A little pit stop while we picked up a new family with one independent cyclist and his siblings grabbing a lift in the Bike Bus cargo bike until they’re confident/old enough to join us. Great tunes this morning from the mobile disco🪩 🎵🎸

Everything Jo says in this video rings true with our Bike Bus. We love it but we shouldn’t need to have it. Cycling to school should be easy, safe and a right for children.

How can kids feel safer cycling to school?

These children in Scotland are joining together to form a "bike bus". 🚲 🚌

Please listen to this 1st grader & then let’s do everything in our power to bring the #bikebus to more children.

To celebrate #BikeWeek100 the bike bus will be running every day this week 🙌🚲. We’re hoping some families from @CJSDorset who can’t make Fridays will be able to join us and see what fun we have 🎶🎵. Huge thanks to the volunteers for extra shifts this week. You rock 😘

Imagine being late to work because of the #BikeBus.

So, we won a little award 🥇 🤩🚲! (Well, a handshake, a photo and a sandwich - but not complaining!)

@BCPCouncil Chairman’s Community Awards.

Whilst we love running the Bike Bus, we shouldn’t need to. We need safe routes to @CJSDorset @transportgovuk

We won a thing!!!!

So thrilled for the kids. Think we’re gonna get a loan bike, a pool of warm gloves for winter, lights and bells. Thank you @fridedaysbb 🤗👏

[FRideDays Bike Bus @fridedaysbb]

Congratulations to @Mrsa4boys for being the winner of £555 worth of bike kit gear for your #bikebus in our #FindFiveForFRideDays competition 🙌🚲🎉

@waxlithical Thank you Roger for being one of our chief volunteers. Always reliable and always there. Bike Bus wouldn’t happen week in week out without you ☺️

[Sam Balto @CoachBalto]

@BarrackBikeBus naming the #BikeBus after a road you can’t ride on is brilliant advocacy & exactly what the bike bus movement is all about.

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

Little bit emotional seeing the final cut of this - especially little M saying how we protect him at junctions so he doesn’t get hit by cars 😥. Whilst the #BikeBus is fun, what these kids really need is safe cycle lanes, protected from motor traffic 🤞🚲

[Active Travel England @activetraveleng]

Let’s make the school run an enjoyable one all over the country. Christchurch in #Dorset has started its own #bikebus. Meet the children and grown-ups who ride their bikes as part of a group every Friday @BCPCouncil @bhactivetravel #joyinjourneys #transportindependence

[SunsetsAndWheels @Sunsets_Wheels]

@CJSDorset and @BarrackBikeBus, thank you for helping these children #cycle to school safely. This video highlights just how much we **NEED** to improve the cycling and walking infrastructure in #Christchurch and its surrounding areas. @BCPCouncil

[Sam Balto @CoachBalto]

I have started to advocate for myself for when I am a senior. "When I am a senior I would like there to be shorter crossings to navigate" Most of these improvement projects aren't happening again in your lifetime so do some generational advocating. My future grandchildren....

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

@like2bike_uk @CJSDorset Only WhatsApp but it works great! All the parents are in a WhatsApp group and one of the parents shares the location to the group.

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

One of our ‘bus stops’ on the #BikeBus this morning. We always collect a couple of families here and now we’ve worked out the tracker they know when to expect us! No more wondering if they’ve missed the bus 🤷‍♀️
@CJSDorset

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

Global Bike Bus Zoom Call!

Little bit star struck ‘meeting’ @CoachBalto 🤩

Sharing ideas etc.

Thank you for the inspiration @bicibuseixample and let’s get this idea spread even further afield than Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Glasgow, Worcester and Dorset!

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

@derek_heritage @CJSDorset A couple of weeks apparently.

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

🎵This is the way we cycle to school, on a cold and frosty (Friday) morning🎵

❄️🚲🧊 Hats off (actually keep them on!) to the families that joined us today 🙌🦸‍♂️💪🏻

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

Ah suddenly the tunes have appeared. Another great bike song by @MarkRonson 🙌🚲

[Barrack Rd Bike Bus @BarrackBikeBus]

Friday means #BikeBus day 🥳!

Not sure why the banging tunes from the @latestchilis didn’t come out on the film but thanks to ‘DJ Dad’ anyway!

Still waiting for those Barrack Road cycle lanes @BCPCouncil 🤞🙏
