It’s the last Friday during Try Transit Month, so let’s talk about something very important: saving dough.
Fall gets plenty of attention for colorful leaves, pumpkin everything and pie season. But taking transit deserves a little love, too. Leaving the car behind for a trip can mean using less gas, putting fewer miles on your vehicle and keeping a little more money in your pocket.
Try Transit Month is the perfect excuse to give it a go. Already hopped on the bus this month? Keep it going and remember to record your transit trips in ConnectingVA so your greener miles get counted.
Ride transit. Save some dough. Then decide what kind of dough you're having this weekend. Apple? Pumpkin? Sweet potato? Now that’s a Friday decision we can get behind.

🌿 Why Wednesday: Why green commute?😌 Because sometimes it’s nice when your commute doesn’t require your full attention.
When you take transit or ride in a vanpool, someone else handles the driving. That means your trip can become a little pocket of you time.
🎧 Finally listen to that podcast everyone keeps talking about.
📖 Get a few chapters in.
☕ Actually enjoy your coffee while it’s still hot.
😴 Or do absolutely nothing. We fully support that option too.
Your commute is already part of your day. A green commute can change what you get to do with some of that time. If you’re ready to explore your options, Team RideFinders can help you get started.
