On this gorgeous autumn day, 75 children and "big kids" rode bicycles together to school and it was joyous. Thanks to @cleverhoods for helping the Peabody #Bikebus feel official, and making us so visible! Video by @BostonBikeData – at Cambridge, MA

My name is Evan MacKay. I’m running for state representative in Cambridge to make MA better for the many, not the few. As we head into early voting starting this Saturday, check out our brand-new campaign video!
Cambridge friends in the 25th Middlesex, please get out and vote this primary. We desperately need new leadership in the state. @EvanforCambridg @cambbikesafety
As an advocate for mobility justice and active cyclist, I am thrilled to earn the endorsement of Cambridge Bicycle Safety. As the tragic recent deaths underscore, we need state action to ensure that everybody on our streets can travel safely and with dignity. @cambbikesafety
Wow, that's a lot of whereas's! Official city council resolution "suitably engrossed" just for the Peabody/RAUC #bikebus. This made my day, thanks Cambridge City Council! @Marc_C_McGovern

Children are 20% of our population but 100% of our future.
Yet we keep building places that steal their freedom and put them in danger.
If we really care about the wellbeing of kids, we must start including them in urban and transport planning policies.

At campgrounds, packs of children roam around on their bikes, while people driving cars were patient and slow. Why can't our kids have this freedom in our urban neighborhoods? Traffic calming was necessary at the campsite entrance, but a bubble installation was very effective. – at Brewster, MA
The last bike bus of the school year, and my last bike bus for a year, as my family embarks on a year abroad. Surprised by the community send off, a cello in tow, a photo signed by all the kids, and a city council resolution, so many feels today. @Marc_C_McGovern @bikepedantic – at Cambridge, MA
@1Keytarbear joining #bikebus was a huge highlight for me. The way the kids mobbed Keytar Bear to autograph their helmets, I have no words. I foresee more bike parades in KB's future.

Thank you @katicycle for all your hard work. Watching these young folks having so much fun has been some of my most enjoyable moments.

Highlights from the school year. . . @BostonGlobe covering our bike bus was so magical. instagram.com/p/CzosKHWOcuR/… Helmets off to @cleverhoods for decking us out in our official #bikebus jackets. The visibility for marshals is key. We just need a hot weather version.

@katicycle has proposed a 'Neighborway' to help students travel this route more safely anytime! Neighborways are painted treatments that encourage drivers to be aware that families and children are around. Check out the story and petition:

@WBUR covered the @CambMA 2 year bike lane delay with Councilors Pickett and @VoteJivan. I made it on the radio for a quick minute as well! 📻 It's an interesting discussion. Some brief thoughts below. @cambbikesafety @StreetsBoston @WalkMass @MassBike wbur.org/radioboston/2024/05…
