Lenore Skenazy I present this photo of Bergen Bike Bus BK with kids, including a 4 year old, biking on streets in NYC. Kids can learn to bike at early ages and navigate the built environment. It is up to policymakers to design and install safe infrastructure. #IndependentMobility #Independence

It is important to understand that bike buses aren’t here to only advocate for people who ride bikes to school but all students who desperately need safe streets to thrive.

Happy Car-Free Earth Day, NYC 🫶

After many years of struggle, we finally were able to get #SammysLaw passed. While this is an important moment in the history of nyc street safety and thanks to all the legislators who stood up to make this happen, it’s also a reminder that this shouldn’t have been so hard. 🙏🏽

We're honored to have our co-founder Hilda (she/her) be part of a panel exploring how practitioners work toward Winning Safe Streets for Every Family at NYC DOT 's first Equity in Motion Summit. Many thanks to Gén(esis)🌿, Nichole Hollis, Dr. Leszek J. Sibilski, Jacob Smith & Kim Wiley-Schwartz✨

So many at the Queens Children March chanted to make #SammysLaw a reality. And after 5 years of intensely emotional campaigning Families For Safe Streets Transportation Alternatives has done it. Our streets will be better for all.

Thanks to all and most especially Amy Cohen

'Miss Megan, this feels like New York Times Square.'

I wish it didn't take a $3 million traffic 🚦 installation to close the heart of the city to cars and open it to people.

P.S. we were piping Taylor Swift new album for #80sWalkRollClub !

Today on the #BikeBus .

How do we ensure our cities are planned with equity in mind?
On 4/19 I'm joining a panel about Making Room For Families and Kids as Active Transportation in NYC at NYC DOT's Equity in Motion conference. #EquityInMotion #BikeNYC #BergenBikeBus #KidicalMassNYC Bergen Bike Bus BK

SAMMY'S LAW WILL FINALLY PASS!

This moment would not have been possible without your tireless advocacy and unending commitment to street safety.

A message from Amy Cohen, mother of Sammy Cohen Eckstein:

Some of us from TA Brooklyn (TABK) and our partners at Eastbkbikeclub and nychealthy had a great morning in East New York getting the word out about our upcoming community bike ride on May 4: tinyurl.com/rideeastnewyork

All joy on the bike bus 🤩

Let's make sure every student can get to school safely by expanding Safe Routes to School, creating car-free School Streets, and adding “all walk sign” pedestrian scrambles at intersections.

Sam Balto On this morning’s Bergen Bike Bus BK I am gobsmacked by the number of drivers (1 per large vehicle) who are trying to rush ahead of us — we outnumber them 20 to 1! #BikeBus in Brooklyn🩷we say good morning & keep the kids safe! Bike New York

All aboard the bike bus! 🚲😄

This volunteer led group helps students safely bike to school—encouraging environmentally sustainable commuting.

Shoutout to @bergenbikebus and The Brooklyn Green School for letting us tag along for the ride!

Amazing morning on the #BikeBus ! We had three routes as we had lots of kids that wanted to #BikeNYC to school this morning! There is no better way to start your day than with the Bergen Bike Bus BK

Good morning from the Bergen #bikebus & happy Health, Wellness & Green Space #ClimateAction Day!!!

We hope everyone has a great day! 🌎✨🚲 #BikeBusisClimateAction
