A bike bus is a group ride that brings kids, families, and neighbors together to bike safely through their community—often on the way to school. Led by experienced adult riders, the group follows a set route and schedule, picking up riders along the way like a traditional bus, but powered by pedals instead of engines. Riding together increases visibility, builds confidence for young riders, and makes cycling feel fun and social rather than intimidating. Bike buses also play an important role in advocating for safer streets. By being visible and consistent, they remind drivers and city leaders that roads are for everyone, not just cars. Over time, bike buses help build momentum for better infrastructure, safer routes to school, and a culture that supports everyday biking for people of all ages.
