LAST WEEK IN MICROMOBILITY
A Lime-y week: Lime hires its first CFO, drops “bike” from its name replacing bicycles with more popular scooters, and deals with wheel-lockups in New Zealand.
The wheels of Portlandia: This two-seater electric half-car is what Portland based Arcimoto believes will push the needle on climate change and better serve single occupancy driving. We’re big fans.
Powering both the body and mind: In addition to physical benefits of e-bikes, this new study suggests e-bikes give older riders the same brain boost as traditional bicycles.
Bike sharing losing ground: Britain sees big bike-sharing companies Mobike, Ofo, and Urbo pull out after just one year.
Self-inflicted injuries? Bird, Lime, Lyft, Razor, and Spin challenge Oakland, CA over scooter injury liabilities due to potholes and sidewalk bumps.
Native American micromobility eco-tourism: Cherokee Indian Reservation sees strong popularity of its new mountain biking park, prompting acceleration of expansion plans.
More of a grimace: Latin American e-scooter company Grin loses its permit to operate in key Latin American market Mexico City.
