We had a wonderful start to Halloween at the Peabody/Rindge Avenue Upper School Friday morning bike bus yesterday!

Beautiful morning to join the Peabody School Bike Bus for their Halloween ride to school with the School of Honk band! I came as a City Councillor 4 days before an election who didn’t have time to plan a real costume. Lots of volunteers there from @cambbikesafety.bsky.social

So grateful to all the hard work the Council and Cambridge Bike Safety @cambbikesafety.bsky.social has done in providing the safe bike network so far to support the thousands of daily bikers, young and old, who use our streets.
