From a few to more than 350, children and parents ride together to school as a 'bike bus'

On a sunny fall morning, children wearing helmets and backpacks gathered with their parents in Montclair, New Jersey, for a group bicycle ride to two local elementary schools. Volunteers in orange safety vests made sure everyone assembled in a neighborhood shopping area was ready before the riders set off on their 5-mile “bike bus” route. Pupils and parents peeled off toward the first school before the remainder reached the group's final stop.
