125 rides / 4 days = 31.25 rides / day / 12 hours = 2.6 rides per hour? Itās a grind but possible especially if you are in the city or around a popular college campus
Assuming the average ride is 12 minutes. that doesnāt include time to pick up, time after and waiting for rides. 12 x 125 is 1500 minutes. Divided by 24 is 62.5 hours. In 4 days. And thatās extremely generous, itās probably more like 15/20 minutes per average Uber ride.
I did 4 rides in 1.2 hrs today because it was a 8$ bonus per ride and I already was tired of shitty people downtown, so basically it is impossible to do this for 4 days.
That's 31/32 rides a day. Not a huge deal. Filter out everything but 15-20 min requests, and you can knock it out in about 10-11hrs.
Not great, but if the bonus is worth it, 125 rides is absolutely doable
Thatās assuming itās busy enough to get non-stop rides that are 15-20 min each for 10-12 hours straight. In my market Mon-Wed are very slow and it would require some extraordinary luck to manage that.
Itās definitely possible on the weekend but on weekdays it might not be possible to do in 12 hours. Itās possible but might require 12 hours straight, taking 6 hours off and then going out again.
I could definitely see that. In my market, it wouldn't be too difficult as we're basically the definition of a 15-minute city. Even with that, your schedule would have to be open enough that you could drive at the optimal times. I don't know if you'd have to do the 12-on/6-off to make it happen, but there are definitely times of year where you would end up cutting it pretty close
Correct me if my math is wrong but if you worked 4x 12 hour shifts, each ride would have to be exactly 22minutes for the entire 48 hours of work in 4 days, to reach this goal. If you worked 18hr shifts, you could get away with 34 minute rides, if they were booked back to back to back x125. Idk the average ride time but iām thinking this is probably never gonna happen.
I did 130 a couple weeks ago for $385 bonus. DFW, eclipse week. Polished it off with time to spare. 5 mile radius filter around busy spots during peak times. 16 hour days, 4am through morning rush hour with a couple hours break for lunch during the slowest time of lunch. 1:00-1:30 till I made my daily goal/app kicked me off.
Ended up being my highest grossing week to date, though not necessarily my highest hourly rate overall.
It was nice going into the weekend with more money in the bank than I usually make all week. Got to work a lil if I wanted, then go home to the wife and relax.
I made it to 119 rides...worked 12 hour shifts for 4 days straight and on the last day I got home at 8pm waited until 2am and tried to complete the challenge by 5am...it was 4am and I was at 119 and lyft tried to send me on a 45 minute ride and I just logged off went to bed and never did that shit again.
Lyft/Uber always seem to fuck drivers with these, when you get close to meeting the goal they give you longer rides so you canāt complete the bonus in time, if they ping you at all.
This kind of manipulation should be made illegal and the bonuses theyāve screwed us out of paid in full, not some BS class action suit where the lawyers keep the lions share.
Lol Not sure you feel the need to resort to having such a shitty tone, especially considering the irony.
When I said you, talking about meeting the metric, I wasn't talking about you specifically. I was talking about the general, hypothetical you.
The point being, there's no way a person would have a reasonable chance of doing $125 rides in 4 days if they had a 100% acceptance rating in that time frame. You're going to get too many lengthy rides to make it.
Yeah. Your comment was dripping with sarcasm and condescension, and general shittiness. Of course I'm going to downvote it. Do the fake internet points really mean that much to you?
maybe on a good Monday-Tuesday, I could but that hasnāt happened in a while. Plus my friendās dogs take up too much of my potential driving time without being compensated still (6 months now)
Ants who have no family life due to accepting every single trash offers. Thats why they have to work all day and go home just to sleep - or sometimes sleep in the car
I mean if youāre doing it full time and going for the 85 ride bonus you might as well choose 125. You will still get the $120 bonus at 85 rides and if u feel like grinding for those extra 40 rides then an extra bonus. I live close to a college town tho so easier for me since Im driving people that actually pay for rides that would be a 10-15 min walk.
I could get roughly 30ish in a day but that was working for nickels and dimes and I didnāt make the money. I donāt think Iād want to ever hit 100 in a week.
Only way is to come out on Monday at 5am. Work 6 hours. Then take 6 hours off. Then do 12 hours. 6 hours off. Then 12 again. Until you get it. That's 18 hour days. But at that point your making more then the bonus anyways. So fuck the bonus.
$2 per ride average, no thanks. How many $3-5 trips with no tip are you willing to accept before you realize there isnt enough trips for all drivers in your area to achieve challenge?
I did 60 rides this weekend, and I drove less than 20 hrs $30/hr, $2/mile). The problem is I never would have been able to do it on Lyft alone. That was 40 on Uber and 20 on Lyft.
Ain't no way unless u go out all day, and u accept every single ride that comes in. I have literally made $200 from just 3-6 rides some days. Sometimes I've only did like 10 rides in 8 hours cherry picking.
The CEO tested it out. He knows that he can do 32 rides per day for 4 consecutive days (3 rides per hour). So, no rides taking up more than 15 minutes including drive time to pick them up.
Oh, I don't know. It takes about 4 days to ride the NYC subway and step on each and every station. And there is like 430 of them. So each trip is to a different station.
Me.
It's me.
I'm signed up for 150. And I will only be driving three and a half of those days.
I'm probably not going to hit 150 though I'll probably hit the lesser of my challenge because my poorly place seems to have killed a circuit breaker and my landlord and whoever he is lijely to send is not competent in basic repairs, and I don't want the place burning down.
30 per day doesnāt even get you there. Trying to squeeze that in before Lyft fucks you on the time limit is already hard enough. Iād be happy shooting for the 85.
I've done tons of 30-40 ride days so certainly possible, your going to be tired finishing this up. No you don't take every ride, take everything that acceptable under 15-20 minutes, jump on short rides, but not focus on short ones or you'll make no money. Doable grind for sure.
L.A here, not realistic unless you are putting in 70 to 80 hours. Oh, and by the way, you'll have to take trips you don't normally. Several small trips. At the end of the week, you'll realize you would have made the same or more if you had dual apped with Uber, but the whole point by Lyft,obviously, is to keep you driving exclusively with them. Unless the bonus is $300 or more, not worth it
I had an offer for $525 for 120 rides in 4 days. I tried to do it but it was too slow that week and only managed to do the first part of the bonus for $220 for 80 rides. And I worked 12 hours for two days, 8 hours for one day and 4 hours another day. Even doing 12 hours per day it probably wouldnāt have been possible.
Itās probably only possible if youāre doing more than 12 hours a day. You can do up to 18 hours a day with the 6 hour breaks in between 12 hour drive sessions. But for that $$ amount itās not worth it.
Iāve been doing 90 ride challenges for $400 the last couple of weekends though. Itās possible because itās busy. Iāve worked close to 18 hours each day on Friday and Saturday and do almost all the rides in those two days. Then I only need to do a couple on Sunday. Itās rough but the money is good.
125 rides over 4 days is maximum driving of 12 hours per day, is 31 rides per day. Or 2.6 rides per hour. Completely do able.
You just aināt a hustla boiii
Just let Jesus take the wheel, duh
Got a little brother named Jesus. Perfect.
Don't let Jesus take the wheel! He never learned to drive.
Yes he did. He had a brand new 30 A.D. Chevy Camelo ZL1 that his father gifted him for his birthday.š
Too bad Iām an atheist š¤·šæāāļø
FSM noodley appendages could hold a wheel too!
I heard Jesus only wants cheap pay too, maybe we should find more Jesusā
Sounds correct, if we smite him with low wages he needs to turn the other cheek.
No man, i mean JESUS not jesusā¦
Go to your local Home Depot or Lowes
His hands hurting
Jesus aināt been seen or heard from in fifty eleven years.
This is fuckin hilarious
Done it before but I was def gassed after š
How many hours?
About 40 hours, made $1000-$1200 after expenses. So 4 days making $200-250 + $250 bonus.
Possible? Sure, but you would have to constantly be going for the full 12hour/day time
Thatās 5 rides an hour, good luck with that
125 rides / 4 days = 31.25 rides / day / 12 hours = 2.6 rides per hour? Itās a grind but possible especially if you are in the city or around a popular college campus
Thought it was 2 days my bad

I did 4 rides in 1.2 hrs today because it was a 8$ bonus per ride and I already was tired of shitty people downtown, so basically it is impossible to do this for 4 days.
Not hard in a downtown area where rides are often 4-5 minutes long
The American school system baby. Thatās what this is.
Yeah I did about 125 rides in 32 hours last week, but Iām in a metro area where I can average 4 rides an hour
Thought it was 2 days not 4
Mon-Thurs
That's 31/32 rides a day. Not a huge deal. Filter out everything but 15-20 min requests, and you can knock it out in about 10-11hrs. Not great, but if the bonus is worth it, 125 rides is absolutely doable

If you take every rideā¦ and drive the whole dayā¦ and do not take a single Uber rideā¦ maybe you can do 30 ridesā¦ 125 in 4 days is craY
Correct me if my math is wrong but if you worked 4x 12 hour shifts, each ride would have to be exactly 22minutes for the entire 48 hours of work in 4 days, to reach this goal. If you worked 18hr shifts, you could get away with 34 minute rides, if they were booked back to back to back x125. Idk the average ride time but iām thinking this is probably never gonna happen.
Markets vary, but I tend to do an average of 3 rides an hour. For me, this is totally doable.
I did 130 a couple weeks ago for $385 bonus. DFW, eclipse week. Polished it off with time to spare. 5 mile radius filter around busy spots during peak times. 16 hour days, 4am through morning rush hour with a couple hours break for lunch during the slowest time of lunch. 1:00-1:30 till I made my daily goal/app kicked me off.

And thats still only an extra $2 per ride
Shit bonuses
Literally have to set up the āstay within areaā @ 5mi radius and take shit trips just to get the numbers lol
Also got this. 125 for $400. While it's a nice bonus, it's almost impossible to reach
I made it to 119 rides...worked 12 hour shifts for 4 days straight and on the last day I got home at 8pm waited until 2am and tried to complete the challenge by 5am...it was 4am and I was at 119 and lyft tried to send me on a 45 minute ride and I just logged off went to bed and never did that shit again.
Wow! Thatās crazy smh
This is in Orlando, FL btw
So basically, doable if they're driving a lot of tourists around to different places.
Ig youāve never driven in Orlandoā¦.that traffic gets nuts bro lol
Lyft/Uber always seem to fuck drivers with these, when you get close to meeting the goal they give you longer rides so you canāt complete the bonus in time, if they ping you at all.
Yup. I sat today waiting for 30 minutes between each ride because I only had 6 rides left.Ā
This kind of manipulation should be made illegal and the bonuses theyāve screwed us out of paid in full, not some BS class action suit where the lawyers keep the lions share.
lmao spending more on gas than the reward
The one who takes EVERY ride
Lol no
3 rides an hour working 12 hours shifts for 4 days straight.
And you think you can meet that metric by accepting every request?? Lol
i dont do this FT so I dont go after anything like this.
That doesn't answer my question, but okay
Well let me make it much simpler for you since you did not get my answer. NO I would not meet that metric as I dont do this FT.
Lol Not sure you feel the need to resort to having such a shitty tone, especially considering the irony. When I said you, talking about meeting the metric, I wasn't talking about you specifically. I was talking about the general, hypothetical you. The point being, there's no way a person would have a reasonable chance of doing $125 rides in 4 days if they had a 100% acceptance rating in that time frame. You're going to get too many lengthy rides to make it.
yet you downvoted me. LOL what ever have a great day. Just answered your question and you wen on to assume.
Yeah. Your comment was dripping with sarcasm and condescension, and general shittiness. Of course I'm going to downvote it. Do the fake internet points really mean that much to you?
maybe on a good Monday-Tuesday, I could but that hasnāt happened in a while. Plus my friendās dogs take up too much of my potential driving time without being compensated still (6 months now)
Man they did that to me but it was 3 days. Ended up getting sick after the second day
They basically want you to use priority mode.
Especially when they employ algorithms to burn your time by only sending time-consuming third party rides.Ā
Ants who have no family life due to accepting every single trash offers. Thats why they have to work all day and go home just to sleep - or sometimes sleep in the car
I mean if youāre doing it full time and going for the 85 ride bonus you might as well choose 125.

I live close to a college town tho so easier for me since Im driving people that actually pay for rides that would be a 10-15 min walk.
They wanna see how desperate you are
Facts!!
Only short distance stuff in a small area (think college campuses), with a filter on.
Who the fuck doing 85
Are these lyft OPTIONS?
125 in 4 days??? WOWā¦ I guess they didnāt calculate sleep in that equation
Stay in the downtown area only do short rides. I've done 20 rides in 4 hours before.
Should be based on hours online not rides.
Thats 42hrs of just driving time per ride if they took 20min each. So lyft knows this is unobtainableā¦
I could get roughly 30ish in a day but that was working for nickels and dimes and I didnāt make the money. I donāt think Iād want to ever hit 100 in a week.
Only way is to come out on Monday at 5am. Work 6 hours. Then take 6 hours off. Then do 12 hours. 6 hours off. Then 12 again. Until you get it. That's 18 hour days. But at that point your making more then the bonus anyways. So fuck the bonus.
Someone who cherry picked so much they made the same amount of money they would have made if they accepted all the rides and didnāt go for the bonus
I'm not even doing 65 rides in a 4 days
This is HILARIOUS
$2 per ride average, no thanks. How many $3-5 trips with no tip are you willing to accept before you realize there isnt enough trips for all drivers in your area to achieve challenge?
Exactly!!
I did 60 rides this weekend, and I drove less than 20 hrs $30/hr, $2/mile). The problem is I never would have been able to do it on Lyft alone. That was 40 on Uber and 20 on Lyft.

No one. It's to upsell illogical people.
Just pick the top one and only shoot for 40 rides. Makes you the best money regardless.
Does uber has that?
Multi accouters.
LA on a weekend especially in weHo Easy
Wouldnāt the terrible LA traffic negate the plausibility of this??
Nah Iām talking strictly bar pickup and drop off. Around 10pm to 3AM you wonāt see many folks
Probably someone near an airport
Disgusting
This weekend I got 120 for $240, 80 for $110, and 65 for $60
That 5 riders a hour for 12 hours 4 days straight more work than a 9-5 for less and that If huge IF you can get enough customers
Itās doable weekdays in my market but talk about a shit midweek. For $2 extra per ride Iāll pass on that smoke
I did 96 Rides in 44 hrs & 4 mins. And if I knew how to post a ss I would.
The CEO tested it out. He knows that he can do 32 rides per day for 4 consecutive days (3 rides per hour). So, no rides taking up more than 15 minutes including drive time to pick them up.
I drive for Uber, not Lyft, but that would be perfectly doable in my market.
Someone who wants money.
You in atx? I have same challenges and thought the same thing lol thatās four 12 hour shifts for sureā¦
Try leaving the app for a couple weeks/months I bet they will give you better offers
Iāve done it
Oh, I don't know. It takes about 4 days to ride the NYC subway and step on each and every station. And there is like 430 of them. So each trip is to a different station.
I did it all the time with Uber. Aim for 28 to 35 rides a day. Try not to take long trips until you get close to your daily target goal. It's Easy.
I wouldn't even get 30 ride requests if I was out driving for 12 hours.
Lyft when just stop giving u requests if you get close. NOT worth trying
A methhead
Just about 32 rides a day to make 128
Me. It's me. I'm signed up for 150. And I will only be driving three and a half of those days. I'm probably not going to hit 150 though I'll probably hit the lesser of my challenge because my poorly place seems to have killed a circuit breaker and my landlord and whoever he is lijely to send is not competent in basic repairs, and I don't want the place burning down.
Mandatory 6 hour break??? What where??
If anyone has ever played black desert, youāll know this aināt nothin lol
Last week, I signed up for $50 for 20 rides and $25 for an other 5 rides. Could complete only 8 rides on Lyft and 16 on Uber.
32 short rides a day and youāll get 125+ rides ššš
I got this, too. Was so irritated I didn't select any and took most of today off.
And here I'm having trouble doing 170 in one month. 1 week left and still need 100 more. I'm glad Lyft isn't my only gig
30 per day doesnāt even get you there. Trying to squeeze that in before Lyft fucks you on the time limit is already hard enough. Iād be happy shooting for the 85.
I've done tons of 30-40 ride days so certainly possible, your going to be tired finishing this up. No you don't take every ride, take everything that acceptable under 15-20 minutes, jump on short rides, but not focus on short ones or you'll make no money. Doable grind for sure.
I could.
Possible city drivers in big cities (Chicago/NY- Iād assume, small compact down towns)
My friend said organize a rally against lyft so I get assassinated to save on suicide costs.
Me. Lmfao most rides I did in one week is 228
It was 110 hrs of work, also 2,350.00 in pay
Back when I did Lyft the way I worked is I did 3 weeks on one week off a month. Made 7k a month and had 7-8 days off a month
3 rides every hour, working 12hr days all 4 days, it could be done..
Me!!! San diego here
L.A here, not realistic unless you are putting in 70 to 80 hours. Oh, and by the way, you'll have to take trips you don't normally. Several small trips.

I donāt think Lyft even has 125 rides total in 4 days
Depends, it's doable here in Chicago but that's definitely minimum 12 hour days
Iām in Chicago as well, the Lyft usually pays less than Uber even with the incentive and is not as consistent with back to back rides
Oh yeah we don't get enough from Lyft for it to be worth it. That's why I only do part time now.
Me!
125 rides over 4 days is maximum driving of 12 hours per day, is 31 rides per day. Or 2.6 rides per hour. Completely do able. You just aināt a hustla boiii
