“Bicycles to me are freedom' - A Utah mom is organizing a new way for kids to get to school in the Rose Park neighborhood and she's asking for help to get the idea rolling. 🚲
SALT LAKE CITY — A mother in Salt Lake’s Rose Park neighborhood is trying to change how students get to school.The concept involves students and chaperones riding bikes to school in a critical mass, promoting a healthy lifestyle, community engagement and improved air quality.She was inspired by several videos on social media of successful “bike bus” groups in other cities – including Portland, Oregon.
“The kids just absolutely love it,” said Sam Balto, a physical education teacher and bike bus champion in Portland. “They have taken to it more than I could have ever imagined.”As much as his students have embraced the idea of riding to school together on bikes, a worldwide audience is falling in love with the phenomenon.
Coach Balto is trying to spread awareness and is encouraging others to organize bike buses in their communities.
