Home Ride
Home Ride is a private bus service connecting James Madison University, Radford University, University of Virginia, and Virginia Tech to the metropolitan areas of Northern Virginia, Hampton Roads, and Richmond. Home Ride runs outbound service from the universities on Friday afternoons and return service Sunday afternoons, allowing students from Virginia's major metropolitan areas to return home for a weekend without needing a car on campus; it also runs similar service around the schools' holiday breaks.
The company operating the service is called Home Ride of Virginia, Inc. and is based in Blacksburg, Virginia. The company does not own its own vehicles, but instead contracts for charter service each weekend. This allows it to vary the level of service; for example, on a low-demand weekend, a single bus might start at Radford, then stop at Virginia Tech and JMU on its way to Northern Virginia, while on a busier weekend each route might receive its own vehicle and get direct service to its destination.
