May is National Bike Month and we're celebrating with two of our favorite films about the power of the almighty bicycle: The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind and Wadjda. If you're a bike fan (and we know there are a lot in the Fediverse), you're in for a treat!
These are great films for the whole family and also offer free lesson plans suitable for grades 6 and up.

Hey Ohio, during this #NationalBikeMonth keep yourself safe!
Ohio's open carry laws permit you to carry a loaded rifle or handgun while biking, which you may use it in self defense, without a duty to retreat. Cars on the other hand may not transport a loaded firearm in a way that makes it accessible to the driver or passenger without exiting the vehicle.
(This is a really dumb set of laws, but it is the law)
