What we’re about
We are Boston's number one group for hiking, skiing, biking, snowboarding, and more.
We have no cliquey events where only the regulars always get chosen, and every event starts with carpool so nobody is left behind. We are the most inclusive group in Boston for hiking, skiing, biking, snowboarding, and other outdoor adventures.
Our group is about the democratization of the outdoors, so you can be the adventure spark without having to go through layers of the usual Meetup hierarchy.
Do you want to get out and go skiing but don’t have a ride? We’ve got your back. Have you been dreaming about surfing but can’t make it out to California? We know a secret spot to paddle out, and its way closer than you think. Ridj-it has helped bring thousands of people from the creature comforts of Boston out to adventures of a lifetime all around New England.
Ridj-it has taken thousands of cars off the road, and through connecting those without cars with those who have one, we've helped adventurers host over 1000+ events in just a year. Is there a mountain you've always wanted to hike?
Drivers and riders can post adventures on Ridj-it at www.ridj-it.com, and then that trip is posted to our Meetup group. Our events include people from Meetup, Facebook, and others, so we're more than your typical Boston Meetup group.
Why do we carpool? We found most other outdoor Meetups were leaving younger residents, people of color, and immigrants behind. By linking our trips to carpool, we make sure everyone has to work together as a team in order to go on events. Many of our hosts don't have cars, and we're proud to have a space where outdoor enthusiasts can slowly democratize access to New England's beautiful mountains, rivers, and beaches.
