Have you seen a Bike Bus pop up on social media or in your local area? Interested in starting one in your local community?
GoBike is delighted to sponsor three How to Start a Bike Bus – Cycling to School webinars hosted by Women On Wheels and Shawlands Bike Bus.
Hear from Katherine Cory, Shawlands Bike Bus co-founder and Women on Wheels Families Coordinator, about how to get started, tips, tricks, challenges and how different bike buses tackle barriers to cycling to get families in their communities riding to school!
Bike buses ooze fun and joy and this short webinar is sure to be an enjoyable intro to the movement. There will be lots of time for Q&A, so don’t be shy – get our questions ready!
The second webinar is taking place online via Zoom from 12-1pm on Monday 3 November. Book via Plinth https://book.plinth.org.uk/e/31IRlz8mdlLVcsb0NMmN
All welcome.
The untold story of the halcyon era of women’s professional cycling. For six glorious years during the 1980s, the Tour de France held a women’s race alongside the men’s race. These women raced over the same cobblestones, conquered the same mountains, and were cheered by the same throng of adoring crowds as the men.
The film screening will take place at 630pm on Thursday 23 October at the ODEON Glasgow Springfield Quay, G5 8NP. Tickets are selling fast so why not grab yours now!

Seven of us cycled east from the SEC along the Clyde today before turning north onto London Road and then towards Baillieston and Bargeddie.
After a break for lunch in Drumpellier Park, we started our return journey but stopped in Cranhill to admire the model lighthouses and winged figures around the water tower.
Yes, we had some rain early on but we soon dried out and could sit outside at the Park Cafe to eat our lunch.
Next month’s ride will be on Sunday 05 October, when we go to Goldenhill Park!
