In honor of @SafeRoutes_MA walk and roll to school day, we hosted our first mini bike bus!! 6 awesome kids and 4 parents biked to Greenlodge school together and had a blast. #SRTS#bikebus#dedham#biketoschool
Tomorrow we will be helping out with this community art installation to create safer streets at Riverdale Elementary School! It will be a 90x20ft mural, creating space for 5ft bike lanes https://t.co/Eur11gG7KL thanks @americawalks! @StreetsblogMASS@WalkBoston@MassBike#dedham
Vivian Ortiz is Boston's first bike mayor and one of only five in the entire country. One ride at a time, she's trying to make the joy of biking more inclusive, accessible and safer to anyone and everyone in the city.

4-foot passing signage update from the MA Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Board meeting:
@MassDOT will be releasing an application for municipalities to request signs, posts, and hardware for Spring/Summer Install. We heard that about 40 thousand signs will be made available.
And don’t forget to vote in Dedham’s Town election before hand!! #webikewevote#biketovote
Support candidates who prioritize safe biking and walking in Dedham.
@AdamWChap Agreed! We’ll lobby for some at that location. Also there’s good news that the police station across the street is slated for demo and a park will be going in there. We’ve ensured bike racks are in the plans.
Your bike helmet should cover your forehead, ride about 1.5 inches over your eyebrows, and shouldn't slip back if you bump it from underneath with your hand. And it might take some effort to achieve that, but it's worth it ❤
