We're so proud of the crew of 19 BWorks youth and helpers who pedaled 6.6 miles through beautiful Forest Park together last night! We saw an owl, beautiful fountains and skies, and even some dinosaurs 🙂 But most of all ...

On this #FriendsFriday, we want to celebrate our latest Pershing Fellow, rising Wash U senior Eva Carrasquillo-Wilkinson (pictured at left). She's been getting a close-up view of what’s possible for St. Louis youth in her internship with us. tinyurl.com/mvmn4e4d 1/3

Weekly recap: July 12 to 18 We’re closing out this middle week of July with lots of water, shade and gratitude. It’s that time of year where the heat can feel relentless, but we all still need to move and learn and connect and get things done! This week was no exception, with nine 1/X

With DOT dropping bike lanes and speed cameras from list of proven road safety measures coupled with enforcement off the table of options, what will advocates turn to? Advocates who have been anti-education or encouragement, will pivot quickly as funding drys. www.npr.org/2026/07/16/n...

Bike lanes and speed cameras disappear from the DOT's list of proven safety measures

The Federal Highway Administration quietly stripped bike lanes and other safety recommendations from a key list of best practices. Critics say those measures are proven to cut crashes and save lives.

Weekly recap: June 13-20 Looking back at the past eight days, we’re celebrating 19 Earn-A-Bike, Learn-To-Ride and Earn-A-Computer class sessions in that time, an alumni adventure to Grant’s Farm, a successful bike drive, solid progress on our new home 1/X

It's Day 1 of Earn-A-Computer class for nine brand-new students joining us at the shop tonight. Welcome, everyone! :)

Weekly recap: June 1 to 6 It’s been a week of memorable moments. Let’s recount just a few… 🧵 On Monday, we celebrated the launch of a great new Earn-A-Bike partnership with Ferguson-Florissant.

This first week of June is off to a strong start with some wonderful pilot partnerships to celebrate. Those include our two-cohort Earn-A-Bike offerings at Little Creek Nature Area in partnership with the Ferguson-Florissant School District, which is even providing bus transport

That’s a wrap on bike buses for this school year. Let’s all keep an eye out for these great kids rolling into summer break on two wheels!

Weekly recap: May 16 to 22 The past seven days are a bit of a blur, and it’s good to stop and reflect on all the good effort by our students, teachers, mechanics, partners and supporters of all sorts. 🧵

What a great day today helping lead the @stlbworks.bsky.social / City Garden #bikebus! We have two more bike bus rides here in #STL next week before school's out, and my soundtrack is in need of a refresh. Got a song suggestion? Let me know! :) cc @coachbalto.bsky.social

A reminder that Wednesday is the annual ride of silence. It’s the annual ride that’s once again not happening in STL because of the ongoing silence by advocates to support victims of traffic violence opting instead to use victims.

What a day! 12 amazing BWorks youth, 5 awesome moms, 6 trustworthy river guides, 3 dedicated BWorks crew members -- that's what we call a successful pedal/paddle! We're so proud of this group of Earn-A-Bike alumni and family members and helpers for biking 10 miles up the riverfront today before...

It’s only Monday, so you can still see us Tuesday or Thursday, but FYI we are shutting down this weekend for a much earned 3 day weekend!

Congrats are in order for our Carondelet Park-based grads, who wrapped up six weeks of lessons last night with their graduation ride! This great group of students and teachers made the most of every spring evening in and around the park and now the students have taken home their bikes to keep! 1/2

To all our amazing supporters in Illinois! All month long we are collecting bikes with these great libraries and MCT!

What does it mean to give at BWorks? So many things! On this Give STL Day, we’re savoring: > how our amazing students give it their all (including two graduating Earn-A-Bike groups at SLPS elementary schools yesterday, one group at International Institute today .... 1/3

Weekly recap: April 26 to May 2 For a week that started out rather stormy, it sure did turn into one full of springtime magic and a great start to National Bike Month, too! This past Monday our Oak Hill Elementary students met their chosen bikes for the very first time 1/X

I keep falling asleep sitting up (on the couch) tonight as we watch a show. Another wildly busy week and so much to celebrate. Proud of our @stlbworks.bsky.social team and students and partners.

Our latest group of Earn-A-Bike students at Bernard Long wrapped up a fantastic six weeks of effort today. We went for a ride around the neighborhood celebrating their accomplishments! Big thanks to the Joe Roberts Youth Club and the Agency for Community Transit for making this cohort possible. 😎

We just updated our classes page with more Earn-A-Computer, Learn-To-Ride and Earn-A-Bike options around the #STL area as we zoom toward summer! Find more info & the registration links at www.bworks.org/classes/ where we also list our upcoming alumni adventures that still have spots!
