About this Event
Skip the car. Catch a bus or train, cruise on a Lime Glider, and turn your journey into part of the adventure!
Join Ghisallo Cycling Initiative and Get There ATX for a free snorkel tour with Save Our Springs Alliance—but there’s a catch: you’ve got to earn your ticket. 😎
Let's be real, parking at Barton Springs is a drag! When you're ready to escape the heat of the summer and jump in the cold healing waters of Barton Springs Pool, the last thing you want to do is circle a dusty dirt lot with 20 other cars looking for somewhere to park! Ghisallo Cycling Initiative and Get There ATX want to empower you to take a transit tour and discover how you can utilize public transit and micromobility to get to and from Barton Springs!
What's Included:
- CapMetro Bus pass good for the whole day ($2.50)
- Lime Glider fees waived ($14.99)
- Lime Glider concierge service off the Bus and at Barton Springs (priceless)
- Entry to Barton Springs Pool
- Ticket to Save Our Springs Alliance Snorkel Tour ($20, entry to pool included)
- A $37 Value!
Here’s how it works:
Take public transit from your home to our downtown meetup at the Seaholm Water Intake Facility. Document your journey with a photo, video, observation, or mini “transit story” along the way. Meet the crew, swap stories, then we'll roll together to the pool on Lime Gliders courtesy of Lime Micromobility.
Think of it as a scavenger hunt, except the clues are hiding in your commute.
We'll walk you through everything you need to have a successful self-guided transit tour and be fully supported by Ghisallo Cycling Initiative staff in navigating the streets on Lime Gliders.
You'll receive more detailed instructions for participation upon registration.
No car required. No experience required. Just bring your curiosity, your wheels—or your transit pass—and your sense of adventure.
Your commute is the first leg of the journey. Your story is your ticket. Your reward? Get snorked with Save Our Springs Alliance.
