Awesome app! Will update after I offer or receive a ride. Very customizable and simple ride systen, has a chat, and more. Share this app so more people can rideshare, there aren't many active ridesharers at the moment.

Hmmm ... I want to rave about this app - it's the only one of it's type (that works in Australia) - however this is an "in development" app and does have it's issues. EG-I'm unable to figure out how to edit or delete a ride offer. Yes there are very few users, but you've got to start somewhere, and this app has the right name. I am hopeful that it will come to fruition with further code development. It would be nice if the FB page was open so that users could talk to each other on how to use it
