Balmaseda is the oldest town in Bizkaia, founded in 1199. Everyone driving along the Kadagua in their own car is a much more recent idea. And a far less practical one.
From Bilbao it's 35 km of BI-636 through Alonsotegi, Sodupe, Güeñes and Zalla. Lots of cars, one person in each.
Eight centuries of history is plenty of time to learn to share a car.
From the Nervión to the Kadagua. Room for everyone.
The C4 takes about 55 minutes from La Concordia. The Bizkaibus runs every 20 minutes, but it stops along the way.
In a TRIBBU you go straight there, at the time that suits you both. The only stops are the ones you agree on.
If you drive, we pay you €0.04 per kilometre and passenger. More sustainable. Smarter. That's why we pay you.

In Enkarterri, weekends count too.
At Easter, more than 700 locals stage the Pasión Viviente, recorded since 1771. In May comes the Medieval Market. And every 23 October, for San Severino, the Putxera Contest brings the bean stews out onto the street.
Beans for everyone, parking for a few. Arrive together.
Quick answers before you get on the BI-636.
35 km on the BI-636, just under 50 minutes. Shared, the cost is split.
Yes. They're on the route. When you book you agree where to pick each other up.
All through the app. You book, you pay and the driver gets it on the spot. No cash, no splitting the bill by hand.
Basurto Hospital and central Bilbao on one side. Balmaseda's secondary school and the new Elkartegi business centre in Zalla on the other.
Students, healthcare staff and shift workers. Post your route and pick up in Sodupe, Güeñes or Zalla. You probably know a few of them already from the traffic lights.
Thirty-five kilometres. Fewer cars on the Kadagua.
Make a TRIBBU along the Kadagua.
Someone in Güeñes is leaving for Bilbao at the same time as you. They've done it alone for years.
Post your route and break the habit.
