I love the word free so when I heard that Bear Transit is free I knew I had to take advantage of it. Taking the shuttles are pretty nice and you can get to a lot of places by using them. First of all anyone can ride the shuttles. It takes you from the campus to the downtown area where you can pick up BART service. You can also get to Clark Kerr campus, the Hill area, residence halls, Richmond Field Station too. All you need to ride the shuttle is a campus ID card. If you don't have an ID card then there's a charge but I don't think it's much. Bear Transit is wonderful and a good way to see the area without paying a penny.
