We had the pleasure of visiting Tafoya Elementary School in Woodland last month to see The Bike Campaign’s Bike Skill Training Program in action. Their team was on campus working with second graders, helping them build essential bike safety skills and introducing them to the joy of riding.
Through their work, The Bike Campaign discovered that nearly 60 percent of second graders didn’t know how to ride a two-wheeled bicycle—but they’re working hard to change that. So far this school year, the volunteer-run organization has brought its programming to 14 schools throughout Woodland, Winters, Davis, and Knights Landing, reaching hundreds of students across Yolo County.
Through the Air District’s Clean Air Funds program, we helped The Bike Campaign purchase a new fleet of bicycles for this initiative. We’re proud to support the nonprofit and its mission to encourage more people to ride bikes—reducing harmful emissions and improving air quality for everyone.
