At a cycling skills course, they practised navigating situations they encounter on the streets every day, including traffic signs, traffic lights and obstacles. Through drawing and conversation, they also shared how they imagine their city and what they would change to make its streets safer and more pleasant.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>\u201cWe wanted to use this event to show that safe and sustainable mobility starts at the local level.
