Minneapolis welcomes new bike and scooter rentals after Nice Ride's departure.

Minneapolis will have a new shared bike and scooter program this year, after Lyft announced in March it would shut down its Nice Ride bike rental program. Bikes and scooters from three operators — Lime, Spin, and Veo — will be available for rent starting Thursday. All three vendors will have scooter rentals, while Lime and Veo will have e-bike rentals.

Scooters will be placed throughout neighborhoods with equity-focused distribution requirements, according to the statement.
