History in America where, for the first time,

:00:00.:00:13.

And get ready to see a seriously big worm...

:00:14.:00:24.

First to America, where history has been made overnight.

:00:25.:00:28.

For the first time, a woman will have a real chance of becoming

:00:29.:00:31.

It's because Hillary Clinton has won the race to be her party's

:00:32.:00:36.

Now it's a fight between her and Donald Trump in November to see

:00:37.:00:42.

This is what Hillary Clinton had to say....

:00:43.:00:48.

Thanks to you, we have reached a milestone. CHEERING

:00:49.:00:58.

The first time, in our nation 's history, a woman will be a major

:00:59.:01:10.

party's nominee. Tonight's victory is not about one person, it belongs

:01:11.:01:16.

to a generation of women and men who struggled and sacrificed, and made

:01:17.:01:19.

this moment possible. Next to the school where two wheels

:01:20.:01:22.

are better than a car... Ricky's been to a school

:01:23.:01:25.

in Yorkshire where children have won an award for the amount of time

:01:26.:01:27.

they spend on their bikes. Helmet on, school awaits! There is

:01:28.:01:42.

nothing like a good bike ride. No matter the weather, even when it is

:01:43.:01:47.

raining, these guys get on their bikes and scooters, and off they go!

:01:48.:01:57.

These guys are so good at it, they've even won an award. For five

:01:58.:02:04.

whole days, every single kid at this small school in Yorkshire 's used

:02:05.:02:11.

their bike or scooter to get to school. It is important as you are

:02:12.:02:16.

stopping pollution, it is like changing the world! We can go

:02:17.:02:24.

anywhere you want, really. I love cycling, because it is nice and

:02:25.:02:32.

makes the world better and it relaxes me when I go for a bike

:02:33.:02:34.

ride. But there is still a problem,

:02:35.:02:38.

cycling charities say that a lot of you are not able to ride to school.

:02:39.:02:43.

When we do surveys with young people we find that about a third of them

:02:44.:02:48.

want to cycle to school, but just one in 50 children cycle to school

:02:49.:02:52.

in this country. There is a big difference, but if you go to

:02:53.:02:56.

countries like the Netherlands or Denmark, something like a third of

:02:57.:03:00.

children cycle to school. You see more on a bike than in a car, and

:03:01.:03:06.

you get more exercise than in a car. Busy roads can put a lot of you off

:03:07.:03:10.

getting on your bike. Charities say that riding in groups with an adult

:03:11.:03:14.

can make it easier and safer for young people.

:03:15.:03:16.

Next - some of you might have spotted the odd earth worm whilst

:03:17.:03:19.

But I bet you haven't seen one quite as big as this fella...

:03:20.:03:24.

This giant earth worm was spotted during a rainstorm

:03:25.:03:26.

Worms of this size can easily reach five to seven feet.

:03:27.:03:39.
