Rider Express

Cons: Google maps sends you to an improper location. Maybe stating the business that it’s pulling up to example flying J. I did panic since the bus was Five minutes late, which is not a big deal that was just fine. The problem was I wasn’t sure if I was in the right location. I had to ask employees in the flying J. If I’m at the right location and the right side of the building no signage whatsoever. Tips: if you know you’re at the right location to get picked up. Don’t sweat anything else very professional company.
