SHUTTLE SERVICE TO BOGUS: Transportation Cost is factored into the entry fee so please use
this service as it helps decrease pollution and traffic in the area.This is not the typical bus ride, as we use a 1st class service type bus. Space is limited to the FIRST 60 riders and their bikes.
The pickup point is the Ridleys Market parking lot, northernmost corner, near the Bogus Basin
corporate offices. One bus can carry up to 60 people and is great way to prep for the race
with your friends and get the party started early. Your bike will go into a separate cargo
vehicle, feel free to leave things you cannot take with you during the race
on the shuttle, we will bring it to the Boise Co-op.
The bus will leave the parking lot at Ridley's at 10am and would be perfect for Banzai
Bikers. Again please pre-register online, otherwise we have to charge $20.00 for the
on-site inconvenience to our staff.
There will NOT be bus service back to the top after the race.
Pre-ride party bus shuttle to the start:
