Oak Cliff residents change local school from having 0 bicyclists to 100 in a week.

Neighborhood residents noticed that no children bicycled to one of the local elementary schools in North Oak Cliff...so they set out to make a change. They first promoted a "Bike to School Week", made t-shirts, punch cards, and worked with local art groups to create posters promoting bicycling. Within a week, the school with no bicyclists saw 100 in short order.
