Move more, drive less and win rewards during May in Motion

May in Motion is Boise State's campus-wide active transportation challenge, encouraging students, faculty and staff to rethink how they get to campus and get rewarded for it.

Whether participants walk, bike, bus, scooter, carpool, or telework, every trip counts.

May in Motion is not about being perfect; it is about trying something new. Whatever that looks like, it counts.

How to Participate

All participation happens through Share the Ride Idaho.

  • Join the Boise State network
  • Log trips (bike, walk, bus, scooter, carpool and telework) during the month of May
  • Track the impact and earn rewards

Every trip logged increases the chances of earning incentives and helps support a more resilient campus. Have questions? Contact Bike Help at [email protected]

Kickoff Party - April 28

Start May in Motion with Boise State Transportation at the Student Union north plaza on April 28, from 10 a.m-2 p.m.

At this welcoming kickoff event attendees can:

  • Learn how to participate
  • Get set up on Share the Ride Idaho
  • Explore transportation options
  • Connect with others participating
  • Make a fruit smoothie on the blender bike and pick up some swag

Don't have a bike? No problem

The Cycle Learning Center is offering free month-long bike rentals to help those interested participate in May in Motion. This is a great opportunity to try biking to or moving around on campus. Register for a rental bike via the Google Form, and pick it up at the bike shop.

Use existing options

Boise State already offers a wide range of transportation options. May in Motion is a great time to take advantage of them:

  • Free Campus Shuttle
  • Free Valley Regional Transit Bus Pass
  • Lime scooters and bikes
  • Walking, biking, carpooling and teleworking

Anyone using one of these options is already participating - they just need to log the trips.
