Fuel price going up? Start a bike train.

In USA, some parents are running bike trains so that older children who can cycle can get to school safely with their guidance.



In 2014, I paid the bus transport service provider RM180.00 per month to send my daughter to school.  This year, I am paying RM220.00.  With price of fuel increasing, bike train could be one way we can reduce the cost of transporting our children to school.

According to "Safe Routes", it is recommended that there is one adult to manage every three to six children cycling.

The thing is, will it be possible to run a bike train in Malaysia for children living near their schools?
