What is a bike train?

A bike train is a parent-led group of students biking to school. We’re encouraging active transportation and environmentally friendly alternatives to single occupancy vehicles.

Who can join?

All elementary students at Hastings are welcome to join. We ask that students younger than third grade are accompanied by a cycling adult. Community members are welcome to cheer as the train goes by, or join if you’d like!

Join us!

We will announce upcoming bike trains here and on our Instagram account (@hastingsbiketrain)

The map here shows our two current routes as well as estimated timing. We will ride mostly every other Friday
