Transit Month Ride Contest Prizes

Keep an eye on this page! Additional prizes may be added throughout the month!

All prizes are for the entire month unless otherwise noted.

You cannot win more than two prize categories per household.

All prizes must be claimed at the Rider First Award Ceremony on October 13th at 375 Beale Street in San Francisco, unless otherwise noted.

We love our transit operators, but Ride Contest prizes are available only to transit riders, not transit operators who log the routes they drive professionally. Do you know a transit operator who goes above and beyond? Nominate them for a Rider First Award here before September 24th.
