Why bike buses matter
The ride is about more than transportation.
A bike bus brings joy, laughter, and the excitement of arriving at school together. There may be benefits in the classroom, too. Medical Daily reported on a Danish study linking walking or cycling to school with better concentration-test results.
“The exercise one uses to transport oneself to school is reflected in the level of concentration one has circa four hours later.”
