Look what I discovered as I walked down Cedar Street to the Little Italy trolley station this morning. A bunch of identical lime green bicycles were waiting in a row on the sidewalk!
Upon closer inspection, I saw these bikes can be rented simply by unlocking them with a smartphone. And riders pay only one dollar per half hour! Very affordable!
LimeBike has just announced the introduction of their smart pedal bikes into downtown San Diego. That must explain why I’ve never them before.
In the future, I’ve learned they intend to introduce a fleet of Lime-E electric assist bikes and Lime-S scooters. Sounds like a great idea to me!

Several different companies are now offering a whole fleet of bikes and scooters for rent in San Diego. All you need is a smartphone to unlock them! You see them parked on sidewalks everywhere!

I believe there’s a similar scheme operating in London. And good to cut down on car use to ease congestion.

We live in the Marina District and we love the colorful new bikes and scooters everywhere. The whole fun outdoor vibe is perfect for San Diego and they add a coloful and sculptural touch to the street corners even when not in use! We should be a healthy walking and biking community—if not here, then where?
