Only the day or days off that you would have worked on a traditional schedule are eligible for reporting as an alternative commute.\u00a0 You can report your compressed work week day off on the commute calendar online or by using the Club Ride Rewards mobile app.<\/p>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Interested in Club Ride but nervous about being stranded at work with no car? Don\u2019t be. Our Guaranteed Ride Home program will get you where you need to go if an emergency happens. If you regularly carpool, take transit, vanpool, bicycle, or walk to work and an emergency happens, Club Ride will pay to get you back home, to your car, to a hospital, or to your child\u2019s school. You can take a taxi, Uber, Lyft, use public transportation, rent a car (if the destination is more than 30 miles away and you are at least 25 years old with a driver\u2019s license), or ask a co-worker to drive you.<\/p>\n Guaranteed Ride Home program – Commuter Overview<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div> This is a free benefit to Club Ride\u2019s participants as long as your employer is a member (students aren\u2019t eligible).<\/p>\r\n How to get reimbursed: Club Ride will reimburse you for the cost with a receipt (and reimburse your co-worker for the mileage as long as you document it). The transportation coordinator at your company will give you a trip summary form to complete. Each calendar year, you\u2019re allowed to take advantage of the Guaranteed Ride Home program five times. Tips for the taxi ride are not reimbursable and, if you use a rental car, the reimbursement will be for a standard one-day fare and refueling (with receipts).\u00a0 Reimbursement for Guaranteed Ride Home is limited to a maximum of $75.00 per ride.<\/p>\r\n For more information, speak to your transportation coordinator (your Human Resources department can tell you who that is) or call Club Ride at 702-228-RIDE (7433).<\/p>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Club Ride offers a free matching service for carpoolers.
