Sustrans has created the first ever Children’s Walking and Cycling Index, designed to help better understand the behaviours, barriers and attitudes affecting how children walk, wheel and cycle in the UK.
Children are often overlooked by decision-makers in transport except on journeys to and from school.
This leaves out the role that travel plays in their day-to-day lives, supporting development of their independence, socialisation skills, overall mental health and wellbeing, and reducing the family workload.
This new report gives a voice to children across the UK.

This ride sees us heading along the riverside to Glasgow Green, then onwards to explore the East End of Glasgow, including its parks. We will see some of the better known parks such as Tollcross Park and Hogganfield Park, and also some of the smaller parks.
Along the way we will pass attractions as diverse as the Velodrome and Provan Hall. We will finish up at Speirs Wharf at around lunchtime.
22 miles, with the occasional climb, and short bits on main roads.
Meet 10am at the north end of Bell’s Bridge, Congress Road, Glasgow.

Let’s hope the weather on Sunday is conducive to checking out all the cycling infrastructure on Andy’s route: the new and not so new, the good and not so good.
Please note that due to the red weather warning the AGM has been cancelled. The new date will be posted in due course. Stay safe everyone.
10:30am on Saturday 25 January 2025
at the Pearce Institute, 840-860 Govan Road, Glasgow G51 3UU
Please save the date for our forthcoming AGM. It will be a great opportunity for members and others to hear what GoBike has been up to over the past couple of years and importantly have your input into what GoBike should be focusing on moving forward.
Sorry about this but the ice is scary out there and, as you know, GoBike rides try to avoid busy main roads. Paths and byways could be treacherous.
THE RIDE ON 05 JANUARY IS OFF – WILL BE RESCHEDULED FOR 02 FEBRUARY
