Youth and Family
Cycling Initiative
The Youth and Family Cycling Initiative, developed by Greenline Wheels, is an effort to bring bike safety and awareness in Oak Park to a new level of priority. Through this initiative, Greenline Wheels will partner with local entities, such as District 97 schools and public events, to promote an ethos of overall wellness and active engagement in the local area through biking.
The core of the initiative is the bike safety curriculum, complete with activities and games that reinforce the rules and mentality of safe biking. Specific components include an introduction to biking equipment, explanation of local and state laws, and practice mapping safe routes utilizing the Oak Park Bike Network. Student participants are even given a Cycling Passport to Oak Park, a customized local adventure with built in incentives. Greenline Wheels offers the curriculum, training, and needed materials free of charge to local groups to implement and customize.
As a community, this initiative is an opportunity to work toward tangible change. Our local area shares the struggles of the rest of the country, specifically sedentary habits and unhealthy behaviors. This initiative promotes cycling against a backdrop of an overall healthy lifestyle. Goals of the program include presenting cycling as an attractive option, educating students on bike safety, encouraging exploration of the local area, and contributing to overall wellness among our residents.
As a low-profit limited liability corporation, or L3C, social mission and social outreach guide the operations of Greenline Wheels. Committed to safe cycling and community, Greenline Wheels rents ecologically friendly transportation for families and riders of all ages. Core to our operations are a variety of social outreach and community collaborations.
