Fun, but expensive! I picked it up on a side street near Town Centre Park, rode it down to Guildford, over to Johnson, then up to Walton. I’m a big guy (~250 pounds) and it struggled to climb Johnson…but without the assist I never would have made it.
The helmet was small for my big head, but it worked. It took me a few tries to scan the QR code and start riding. I’m not sure if that was my phone or the app’s fault.
10 minute ride: $5.50, minus a $0.50 coupon for watching the safety video.
Overall, it’s good for a quick one-way trip, maybe to the grocery store then transit or Uber on the way back with bags.
ok i literally just saw scotters sitting on the side of the street the other day, do we have scooters and ebikes around town now? when did this happen?!
Just very recently! The orange ones are Neuron, the white and green ones are Lime.
I’ve only tried Neuron, but both ebikes and scooters. I’ve honestly been tempted to get a monthly pass to use them more.
My only concern is car drivers. I was crossing Guildford on a scooter the day before yesterday and a car turned right into the crosswalk while the walk signal was going. It would have been the same problem for walking pedestrians though.
