Zara Larsson is the kindest individual l've ever met. She took photos, signed autographs & even did the #LushLife dance with the kids. The kids got the full #ZaraLarsson #BikeBus experience!! Thanks you to you and your team for riding with us. #Boots

I love it every time my friend @coachbalto.bsky.social lands another celebrity collab. It just spreads the message that we can have kid-friendly cities.

It's been three weeks since the storm. Shovel out these cars, tow them, and turn the space into bike parking, public seating, on-street garbage containerization, bioswales... anything other than car storage would serve more people than this.

This is an awesome idea and should be implemented wherever possible. Teaching children how to maneuver traffic on a bike and where it's safe to ride.

My youngest is riding his bike to school with buddies today and my duties as an elementary school drop off professional have officially concluded.

If you live in Oregon especially outside of Portland. Please contact your state representative asap. #BikeBus should be all over the state & this Safe Routes to School funding helps make that happen.

Hey this was my son's class! 2 years ago. Featuring a bike fleet my daughter cannot get as a 5th grader because the city only has 2 for 70k kids.

Every community should have a #bikebus. There are so many good things that come from #cycling you need an abacus to count them. And somewhere in the top five good things is joy.

A lot of kids returned to school today after spending winter break stuck inside… not due to weather, but because their families don’t feel safe leaving home with ICE prowling around.

We’re about to get a massive influx of 2,000 agents.

If you haven’t already, please plug in & help where you can.

Cars cost $10k+/year and the couple does not own a car. She could buy one of these a month and come out way ahead, plus the boots will keep higher resale value.
