HEY WAIKATO
RIDE TO WIN
Ride the bus or train this October.
Be in to win over $6,000 in prizes!

Catching the bus or train could be the easiest change you make this October… and now it could be a rewarding one too. 

Leave the car at home, jump on the bus or train and discover just how easy getting around the Waikato can be. No hunting for a car park. No sitting behind the wheel in traffic. And you could save some money along the way. 

Best of all, every bus or train ride you log during October gives you another chance to win.
The more you ride, the more chances you have.
Promotion runs 1-31 October, 2026.

WHY NOT GIVE THE BUS OR TRAIN A GO?

Maybe you've thought about catching the bus or train but never quite got around to it. October is your excuse. You might discover your trip to work or a meeting is easier than you thought. You might save on petrol and parking. You can read, listen to a podcast, catch up on emails or simply sit back and let someone else do the driving. And if you win something along the way? Even better.

One month. A few less car trips. Over $6,000 in prizes.
