We had an amazing time leading a cycling program at Bret Harte Elementary! Over 4 weeks, we taught beginners to ride and helped experienced riders sharpen their skills. Big thanks to Outride for their support through the Riding for Focus program, providing bikes and helmets!

This week, we launched the Smart Streets Pilot Program to improve safety and accessibility by keeping our bus and bike lanes clear. Be smart, avoid a ticket!
