My talk about how great bike buses are is available to watch on YouTube www.youtube.com/live/j3FXi9Y... #bikebus The main message is to nudge a teacher or parent to look at the starter guide on bikebus.org/edinburgh and to contact me. More bike buses please less traffic!

A #Bikebus attracts families that normally drive to #school. Today 60 kids in Edinburgh cycled to school in the 6 bike buses that ran across #edinburgh. That's 40 less cars polluting the city. It's an easy, safe, healthy and fun way to reducing congestion Let's roll it out to all school

Hi @edinburghcouncil.bsky.social @spokes.org.uk the new walk/cycle way from Roseburn to Fountain Bridge does not appear on Google maps when you turn on the cycle path view. Can it be added?
