Our very first Bike Bus to Pitcairn Primary School from Bertha Park was a total success!

Smiles, fresh air and happy legs powering the school run! There’s something magic about travelling together on two wheels and honestly, you can see it written all over their faces in these photos.

Not only is the Bike Bus helping cut down car journeys (hello cleaner air and fewer emissions), it’s also boosting confidence, independence, and wellbeing for our young riders, turning the school run into the best part of the day.

More fun. Less traffic. A healthier planet.

Now that’s the kind of commute we love.

👏 Huge shoutout to everyone who joined us and helped make it happen!
