They’re still counting, but congratulations to Calgary’s public school board voters who, as of now, seem to have completely rejected the Take Back Alberta-backed cadre of knuckledraggers who were running to take public education back to the 1920’s. #abed #yycbe

A young man repairing a bike.
A group of four people organizing bikes.
A lot more goes on than what meets the eye at Youth en Route. Last week was our moving day! The Youth en Route team repaired and moved our fleet of bikes from Father Lacombe high school to Our Lady of the Rockies high school.

Youth en Route is peddling through milestones! Youth en Route is teaching 560 students from four different schools to ride a bike in 1 day.
Our busiest day ever in four years of helping kids ride!
Today, we rolled with:
200 students at Father Lacombe
250 at All Saints
60 at Crescent Heights
50 at John G. Diefenbaker
Our whole team is pitching in to help these students cruise. #Youthenroute #yycbike #yyc #yycbe #yycssd
Row of bikes in school field. Text says Bishop McNally NE class ready to ride. "I wanted to say, THANK YOU!! Thank you so much for coming to my school and especially for giving me an avenue into bike riding. Because of you guys, I want to ride a bike again and know how to be safe on the road. I really appreciate it and it's been really fun. Please continue to do this stuff all across Alberta/Canada and know that it really is making a huge impact. PS. Stuart was cool lol"
Getting some feedback after two weeks teaching 300 kids cycling at Bishop McNally High School. So amazing how a simple thing like a bike empowers youth. #yycbike #yyc #yycbe #yycssd
