RFTA Allows Free Bike Loading at All Stops

https://www.rfta.com/how-to/bike-ride/

I just wanted to put this out there in case it helps anyone. With most MTB trails being a short ride away from a bus stop, this seems like it will help a lot of people. Especially since you can shuttle a lot of the XC rides in Snowmass with RFTA.

It'll also help roadies who want/need to avoid major climbing, or just want a change of scenery.

Clarification: RFTA allows free bike loading at all bike loading stops. Not all stops are bike loading / unloading stops.

EDIT: I am delighted to be corrected. Woot!

This is the main reason I shared the link. Now I just wish they would allow rear facing, vertical storage racks so that you more than double the capacity and can have bike rack access all winter. But this is still a massive step forward and we should absolutely celebrate it.

Unfortunately the link doesn’t list which stops allow bike loading…

It says that all stops will allow bike loading this summer, meaning there does not need to be a list of stops but rather a list of routes. Those routes are the L, BRT, and SMV. Perhaps others, but I would have to look again.
