We wanted to kick off some good transit vibes in 2010 and, to spread our love of transit, we’re going to give one lucky person a treat. Well hopefully more than just a treat. We want to encourage trying public transit, break down some more barriers, and let someone “test ride” CR Transit. And to do just that, we’re going to give away a 10-Ride pass!
Our hope is that the pass will help hesitant, potential riders give transit a try, or reward a current rider for supporting the system. The flexibility of the 10-Ride pass means it doesn’t expire, and can still get you to work and back 5 times, or you could just cruise around town if you need to get out for an hour.
To give it away fairly, we’re asking those interested to leave a comment on this post with a brief bit about why you ride or why you want to give CR Transit a try. We will use Random.org to generate the number of the winner from the list of comments as of 11:59pm February 19th and announce on February 20th. Your email is required so you can be contacted and receive the prize. If possible, we will hand over the pass at the Route 8 bus party on the 20th, but other arrangements can be made if the winner is not able to make it.
Only citizens in the Cedar Rapids metro area that will be able to use the pass are eligible. Only one entry per person.
We humbly realize that we’re not a huge blog (yet?), so your chances of winning are probably pretty good. Come give transit a real try on us and good luck!

i ride the bus because when i try driving i have anxiety attacks. this is not to say that i cannot drive-i just prefer not to. that is why i am so grateful for all the wonderful bus drivers that are doing US a service-not the other way around. i also think that the bus drivers deserve more respect than what they get! if they did not drive then i would not get to work, so thank-you to the bus drivers, who provide this service to us!
