At Dutch Cargo Bike, we’re always thrilled to see our bikes being used in innovative ways to promote sustainable transport. One such initiative is the Victoria Park Bike Bus, which has become a fantastic example of how cargo bikes can be incorporated into everyday school runs. The bike bus rides with a Bakfiets.nl cargo bike, sponsored by us, and we’re proud to be part of this exciting project.
A Bike Bus is a group of children, parents, and carers cycling together in a safe, supported environment. It’s a great way to reduce car use and get the kids active, while also teaching them important lessons about community, health, and environmental responsibility. But what makes it even more fun is that the Bakfiets.nl cargo bike, a sturdy, cargo bike, is central to the group’s success. The bike is perfect for carrying kids comfortably and safely, even on longer rides.
One of the students from Lathlain Primary School, a Year 1 student, shared their experience:
"I like to ride on the long bike because I don't have to ride, but I can still be part of the group."
This quote perfectly encapsulates the magic of the Bike Bus. It’s not just about riding; it’s about being part of something bigger. Whether the children are pedaling or enjoying the ride on the Bakfiets.nl, they all get to experience the joy of community and the thrill of cycling together.
The Victoria Park Bike Bus is a wonderful example of how our bikes are making a difference. It shows that cycling can be fun, safe, and inclusive for everyone, no matter their ability level or age. It’s inspiring to see the growing trend of Bike Buses, and we’re excited to see where this initiative will go next!
