@thatsten@hachyderm.io bravo! Love this idea, here in Belgium it is quite common, and we bike with our kids daily, but as a native Chicagoan this warms my heart!

Thanks for sharing. That looks fun! Reminds me a bit on how Dutch kids in the countryside cycle to school. As they all have to arrive at the same time they aggregate like streams merging into an ever larger river. With kids the furthest away (maybe 10 or 15 km if they're young teenagers) leaving the earliest, picking up waiting individual and blobs of kids as they get closer to school. It's very empowering. No blocking of roads btw. Here we somewhat agreed to not drive over kids. @thatsten@hachyderm.io
