The 30-Day MetroCard Challenge Update

by Benjamin Kabak

With just under half of the time left on my 30-day Unlimited MetroCard Challenge, I’ve taken 38 trips, and I’ve hit the MTA’s $2 base fare. At this rate, my $76, 30-day MetroCard will average out to approximately $1 per ride. No wonder the MTA wants to raise the fares on these things. Follow my progress in the middle column.

I’m rooting for you to break the under $1.00 per ride Metrocard.

Take an out-of-towner around the city for a day. That got me 11 swipes in 2 days.

I LOST MY 30 DAY METRO CARD. I BOUGHT IT AT A BENDING MACHINE AND I HAVE MY RECEIPT ON ME. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I CAN BE REINBURSED.
