Not pictured: Soooo many bike donation runs, a ton of amazing work by volunteers at our evolving soon-to-be home, dozens of beautifully refurbished bikes and computers, and lots of encouraging chats and big strides with folks who, like us, want all the good things for #STL-area youth and families.

Our student in the purple tiger outfit told two of us teachers at her school yesterday that she chose the outfit for that day specifically, because she remembered she had chosen that purple bike on the first day of our six-week class several Mondays ago :) P.S. Whole thread is worthy of a look :)

It's now kind of a ritual for me. Today's stroll included checking out a new MCT trail, protecting a caterpillar from oncoming bikes :), listening to an Elaine Pagels book, and saying hello to some critter sculptures as well as lots of fellow trail users. Such a beautiful day to be out!

It's the 277th day of the year, and an October Sunday, which meant a ten-mile walk this morning. A Strava group I'm in challenges you to do at least a mile walking or running outside every day with no misses, plus the number of the month once a week (so 2 miles once a week in Feb, 3 in Mar, etc).

Only problem with October is that I want to sip hot drinks but also watch scary movies and you can't do both at once or risk getting scalded.

She recently shared some favorite memories, including an overnight biking+camping adventure on the Katy Trail, where Emma was amazed watching kids tackle long distances. Seeing even the youngest riders accomplish something so challenging reminded her just how capable and determined our students are.

Over the years, dedicated volunteer Emma Huff has spent countless hours working in the bike shop, helping with alumni rides and bike buses, and more recently lending a hand at BWorks’ soon-to-be new home along South Grand each week!

Everyone smiled and chuckled at his impossibly loud, deep barking coming out of this little body. Thank you for accepting Artie for who he is, neighbors.

Artie's morning to-do list: ✅️ plead for a dental treat ✅️ act oppressed by the cat and avoid eye contact with said cat in hopes of this rendering him invisible to said cat ✅️ sniff all the things ✅️ bark angrily at at least three (3) cyclists on the trail, including a kid riding to school 🤦‍♀️

"Being predictable is the opposite of things like creativity." Well, I said, you're not wrong, but again, when it comes to biking to school, we need to be predictable and ride in a straight line. Assembly is thusly ended lolcry

I stumbled through my answer, but said I loved the question and that sometimes unpredictability is indeed a good thing, but not for our purposes. I tried to demonstrate riding serpentine/wild versus straight line in front of 100 children. Kid remained unconvinced. :)

... "Be predictable" to help cement the three categories we'd just discussed and demonstrated together. Anyway, he goes "Isn't being predictable a bad thing in life?" :)

Kids say the darnedest things: This morning at an all-school bike safety assembly ahead of their bike bus this week, during the Q&A after my presentation, an older elementary student raised his hand in the back. I had just had the kids repeat after me, saying things like "Stay to the right" and
