Thanks to the good folks at #bikebus.org for creating this new bike bus page dedicated to #Edinburgh. It links to a @Sustrans guide on how to set up a #bikebus. @fridedaysbb @edi_dot_bike @EdinReporter @EdinburghMinute @SpokesLothian https://t.co/m2HOnrVD8T

“The parent-led group in north Belfast was inspired by other bike buses - including the famous bicibus in Barcelona, Coach Balto's bus in Oregon as well as others in Scotland, England and the Republic of Ireland.”
#BikeBus world takeover!! https://t.co/cb982S91jj

#bikebus folks - seen a lot of stuff this week about folks who want update and news from bike buses around the world. I've set up a mailing list

Got content you wanna share? Get in touch!

[Cllr Jule Bandel @julebandel]

Excited to bring my first motion to Full Council on bike buses! 🚲

I want Edinburgh’s streets to be safe enough for every child to cycle to school on their own. While we work on that, let’s support bike bus initiatives that make the journey to school safe, sustainable & fun. ✨

Kidical Mass and Bike Buses are simple but effective ways to campaign for child and cycle-friendly communities.

Join our virtual gathering on Thursday, including speakers from Edinburgh's Blackford Bike Bus, to find out how you can get involved: https://t.co/qapa0NG9Xn

Important thread 🧵

When children cycle, what benefits does it bring for parents, carers and families?

Does anyone have a connection with @TEDTalks ?? I would love to do a talk on the #BikeBus.

[Jarlath Flynn @JarlathFlynn]

Thanks for the write up @EdinReporter on the new @GWC_News bike bus and the need for volunteers to help grow the number of kids cycling to school in #Edinburgh https://t.co/rguXMDMrlY @SpokesLothian @SW20Ed @BikeBusEdin @edfoc

#Bikebus on NBC!

[NBC Nightly News with Tom Llamas @NBCNightlyNews]

.@ByJacobWard closes our show with a focus on joy:

I could tell you about the emissions saved by the "bike bus"

... but the thing that sticks – after so much stress and sorrow and loneliness the last few years – is watching all these kids float to school on a vast ocean of joy

[Jarlath Flynn @JarlathFlynn]

New #bikebus. Great cycling by the kids on the new @GWC_News Colinton bike bus this morn. A super start to the day😃 @SpokesLothian @Junicycle_LR @RUNBIKEFUN @SalmondG @_RichardABrown @BikeBusEdin @CllrCMiller @CllrScottArthur @SW20Ed

[BikeBusEdin @BikeBusEdin]
