This is the 8th year that Coconut Grove has held these community-wide events promoting the benefits of walking and rolling to school for children and families. This event allows you to test “temporary” protected bike lanes, try out your preferred route, provide input, and be part of this groundswell movement. Our collective goal is to make Coconut Grove an exemplary and safe environment for families to walk, bike, or roll to school.

This Fall’s events are planned for the afternoon of November 13^th
and morning of November 14^th
