A wee encouraging article from Glasgow. Even more so as other schools are showing an interest.

Heart warming.
An encouraging story about cycling on the BBC!
Although the kids are fully kitted out with helmets and hi-viz and need to be surrounded by parents to protect them from other traffic.
Wasn't that enamoured by the volume of "PPE" myself. It does get them out on their bikes as transport as well as doing several laps of Victoria Park up the road on a Saturday afternoon. Also gets some of the parents on bikes and gives them confidence as we saw during the interview. Wasn't to bothered about the kids being flanked by the adults. A lot of the streets in the area get used as ratruns and until motorists get used to the idea that kids cycle to school then it needs to happen. Sadly one of the local news sites had the usual gripes of more than two abreast. They couldn't grasp the concept that even singled out they wouldn't be able to legally overtake and if they did they would need to negotiate 40 bikes in single file.
