‘See the energy’: Ride along on Odyssey Bike Bus’ last fun adventure of the year
Odyssey School of Denver held its final bike bus adventure of the year on Friday, with students, parents, and volunteers riding to City Park. This initiative, which began last year for Bike to School Day, has gained traction as a fun and sustainable way for families to commute. Parent Melissa Colonno expressed her enthusiasm for biking with her children, emphasizing the community spirit it fosters. She noted that bike buses are becoming increasingly popular across the nation, inspiring other schools to adopt similar programs. Denver7’s On Two Wheels has covered various bike bus events, highlighting their role in promoting healthy lifestyles and mental well-being.
Colonno encouraged parents to find support and safety techniques when organizing group rides, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants. The event not only celebrated biking but also aimed to uplift the community's spirit and encourage more families to engage in biking.
