How We Roll: Mursal Mire, Bus Operator

Posted  |  Aug 13, 2026

How We Roll celebrates Metro Transit employees who regularly ride transit and use other forms of sustainable transportation.

How do you generally get around?

I bike, bike, bike! When I’m not behind the wheel of a bus, I’m usually on two wheels. I only drive when the weather makes biking difficult.

What do you like about your commute?

Biking helps me stay active and healthy. When you spend 8, 10, or sometimes even 14 hours behind the wheel, you can’t just go home and sit down — you need to move. Biking gives me that chance.

How do you get around outside of your commute?

I bike whenever I can. After work, I also enjoy riding bikes with my kids. It’s a great way for us to spend time together while staying active.
