Time to hold a Walk/Bike conference in Ohio to focus on this topic?

Investigating social inequalities in children’s independent mobility, active transportation and outdoor free play in two Canadian cities Active transportation (AT) and free play (FP) are the primary ways in which children engage in unstructured physical activity in cities, with independ…

Spot on @schmangee.bsky.social, @owenwaygood.bsky.social and colleagues up in Montreal doing some great work in this area. A couple of other Canadian researchers studying independent mobility @drrichardlarouche.bsky.social and #KatherineFrohlich, www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Children's Access to Non-School Destinations by Active or Independent Travel: A Scoping Review - PubMed Research on children's diverse destinations is relatively limited as compared to trips to school. Various methodologies have been applied and can be combined to completement each other such as objective GPS tracking and subjective surveys on places children would go if they were available. Future re …

Yes, less independent mobility for kids today. Quite a bit of parental concern over traffic safety issues. Diminishing #SocialConnection #Discovery #Resilience (Source NPR, via Daily Mail). Upcoming @bikeleague.org webinar on biking and children's independent mobility in April.

Walking in DC, Walking with my head on a swivel, Walking in DC, but do I really want to be here.

We need it to be great for everyone. Access to plug in balcony solar, more solar subsidies, less expensive EVs, solar/wind projects, #eBike subsidies, better infrastructure for active transportation. #TransportationWellBeing #FinancialWellBeing

Filling up that #DangerousByDesign vehicle with 30 gallons of fossil fuel every couple of days must be interesting. I think I filled up my Plug-In Hybrid van a couple of months ago. Much more fun to charge the Plug-in Hybrid and #eBikes with roof top solar.

It’s happening

'We' - Members of the #GrifterAdministration, #EpsteinClass, and #FossilFuel billionaires

All while Senator Husted is saying "people in poverty are inexperienced with 'real world'". If he is in the real world, why isn't he voting to make things more affordable for Ohioans versus reducing taxes for billionaires and protecting the #EpsteinClass?

Meanwhile, MAGA voters want affordability and no wars.

Yes, "great cities have ways to get around without using cars". Looking forward to visiting in the future to bike and check out the #bikebus rides for kids traveling to school.

US has 38 trillion dollars in debt. Payment on interest is sky rocketing, at 1T annually. Maybe starting a war and giving tax breaks to the billionaire #EpsteinClass is not such a good idea. #ArtOfTheFail

They can just talk about gas prices. Oops, no they can't since #Donnie2Dolls messed that up as well.

Since #Donnie2Dolls is under water in every area, what are they going to tell GOPPP members next, stop talking at all?

#Donnie2Dolls is all about grift, tariffs, wars, and #EpsteinClass protection. Release the #TrumpEpsteinFiles now.

NEWS: The Trump administration confirmed it bombed a girl’s school in Iran.

It's one of the most devastating military errors in decades.

Trump lied about it. Pete Hegseth gutted the office preventing civilian casualties.

175 are dead. Most were kids. Hegseth should be fired.

#Donnie2Dolls continues his war on the environment/climate.
