The DC Bus Roadeo is the #1 Thing I Want to See

I want to go to the DC Bus Roadeo.

That’s right: BUS RODEO!

I found out about this six months ago, and I haven’t been able to get it out of my head.

👋 Anar. The Metrobus Roadeo is a competition where bus operators & mechanics showcase their skills while practicing safety in bus operations & vehicle maintenance. The winners participate in the International Roadeo hosted by the American Public Transportation Association. -MG pic.twitter.com/7o6H28W0B6

WMATA (the DC area’s public transportation agency) holds their bus roadeo every year, and it’s supposedly open to the public based on past years, but they haven’t announced the date for 2023 yet. I really want to know the date, because I really want to go!

And we’re pretty good. In fact, we are international champions at this. Why is this not talked about more?

I want to see the legend at work–Robert Miles has won the DC bus rodeo 28 times.

Now I just need WMATA and GM Randy Clarke to respond to my DMs.
