Whether you’re riding a bike or scooter, there are a few cycling laws all riders must follow to help ensure a safe ride:

• - Ride in the same direction as traffic
• - Follow all traffic signs and signals
• - Yield to pedestrians
• - Walk bikes on sidewalks
• - Use hand signals when turning, and do not weave in and out of traffic
• - Never ride distracted - wearing headphones in both ears is illegal, and it’s never a good idea to use your phone while riding
• - Use caution when bringing additional items that may impact your ability to safely ride, such as a large bag
• - Check the weather before heading out - it can be unsafe to ride a bike or scooter in dangerous weather
• - Never ride under the influence of alcohol or drugs

All users must be 16 years or older to ride. 

Keep in mind it's generally safest to take a route that includes a bike lane. You can use Google Maps​ to find suggested bike routes. And there are many other resources for cyclists available online, such as this Portland Citywide Bike Map​ of bike paths, bike lanes, & greenways.

With our scooters, make sure to put your phone in the built-in phone holder, and use the turn signals to indicate your next move. Keep an eye on the lights on the handlebars, as they will display zoning restrictions, such as parking and no riding zones. You’ll also find brakes on each handlebar.
