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 tele-work, 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 bikehelp@boisestate.edu
