"It's just the beginning," Ramey added. "I think we have no idea how impactful these two programs are going to be on people's lives. I think it's going to be a game changer for the Gorge and how people envision themselves getting around." 🔗 Gorge Magazine issuu.com/thegorgemaga...

Happy 17th birthday to my mini-me, Annika. Giving birth to her changed my life trajectory, forever an advocate for childhood mobility. 📸 Photo 1: 2012 after speaking at the Western Ave cycletrack ribbon 🎀 ✂️ cutting 📸 Photo 2: 2026 on a trip "home" to see our friends. #cycletrack #bikeadvocate

Seeing a mom of 3 do the school run with a bike+ trailer that she now owns thanks to the Hood River E-bike Library, is why I have the best job. Thanks to @pacificpower.bsky.social for funding this program! I am applying today to increase funding from $100->300k to increase the impact.

Sí, se puede! 80 families in the agricultural community of Odell (pop. 2400) showed up for Dolores Huerta Walk to School Day! As a migrant farmworkers community with zero safe walking and biking routes, her rally has never been more poignant. We need 💰 for Safe Routes to School in #Oregon!

My magic 🪄 elves I am getting the Alice Award from @thestreettrust.org at the end of the month and these talented 🚲 mechanics play a huge part. Bike Buddies has donated over 300 bikes in 4 years to kids AND they tune up the Hood River County bike fleets. All for beer 🍺 pizza 🍕 and conversation.

Sidewalk hierarchy: 1. Business 2. Drivers 3. People I was packing my bike next to the curb and had already moved x2 for the store to sweep and a driver to unpack her car. Aesop: move your bike so we can put our A-frame out. We need to open. Me: this is public right of way Them: leave now

10 years after we left Boston, we biked between friends' 🏠 JP to Somerville. On Mass Ave, a parked ambulance forced us into traffic, where a speeding driver missed me by inches. We asked the crew to move. They did. But paint isn’t protection—and Boston still treats bike lanes like parking. 1/2

“Safe Routes to School is exactly the kind of investment that pays off for generations: safer streets for our kids today, and a more walkable, bikeable Hood River tomorrow,” said Hood River City Councilor Gladys Rivera. www.columbiagorgenews.com/news/advanci...

Advancing mobility freedom for children

HOOD RIVER — Four years ago, the community asked a simple question: what if every child had the opportunity to walk or bike to school? Today, the City of Hood
