Tide turns UC Davis into the handful of people you’d actually click with. Davis is built around the MU, the Arboretum, and a weekly Farmers Market, with everyone pedaling somewhere. Tide gives all those near-misses on the bike circles a way to actually become hellos. It’s students-only and gated to UC Davis: sign in with your school email and you only ever see and meet verified students from UC Davis.
