I’m glad you asked, because it prompted me to check the website to see how it deals with Covid. It doesn’t mention it at all, so I guess you just takes your chances. Some news though - the city has signed a new contract with Lyft to run the program through 2025. They’ll be greatly enlarging the fleet and expanding the service area, and converting it to all ebikes.
4 years agoThe orange bikes are in service and being used extensively but I’ve only seen a few scooters and I’m not sure they are the shared scooters.
4 years agoBeautiful trees in lovely neighborhoods! And coffee!
Not a bad way to start the day.
On a somewhat unrelated note, have you seen any of the orange Biketown bikes or the shared scooters out and about? I've been wondering if those services are Covid survivors.
Well it was a day off the saddle. I really enjoyed most of the walk but I definitely had some sore muscles.
4 years agoSo Rachael, I'm impressed that on your 'day off', you go off and hike 14 miles.
And I agree with Jen, it's nice to see how the restaurant is taking things seriously. We still haven't quite got our heads around going out to eat.
Maybe this link will be a work-around...

I have an older sister and 4 younger sisters. As kids we made "dolls" out of them.
Well, darn it all. I just went next door and picked one and a bud to make a doll and took a photo, but can't post the photo here. Pick a bud about to open and keep the stem on, pull off two of the green pieces (sepals) , pick a flower (or get one about to fall off to make it easier) and take off the stem, poking a tiny hole to push the stem of the bud into, and there you have it!
Anyway, it works with other mallows like hollyhocks (what we used as kids) too.

You’re right about it being a Rose of Sharon. I just picked up the PictureThis app, and it agrees with you.
4 years agoCould be, alright. I kept hearing small splashes here and there, but could never see where they came from. I was so surprised to find this little eruption afterwards.
4 years agoGood pictures, good audio, good maps. Everything about it works well. I especially like the wealth of interesting facts and details like this one.
4 years agoWow! Nostrana has put a lot of thought into safe processes.
Just saw an article about restaurant-related outbreaks in Colorado .. so it's comforting to see this level of care, bizarre as it seems.
Glad you got to see Elizabeth!
4 years agoPerhaps a frog doing an about face and kicking its hind legs as it dives?
4 years agoGood spotting! Yup, up in the NE corner at 1836 SE Locust Ave.

Thanks for the update. Great to hear that the orange bikes are still in use. They had a bunch on the Nike campus before I left and I used them a few times to get to meetings on main campus or to just ride around.
4 years agoI wonder what will happen to that part of the fleet when Lyft takes over. Probably not much use on Nike campus with all the empty offices.
Ebikes will be a great addition to the program. Hopefully they add instructions to be sure to bring hand sanitizer.
Interesting that the scooters aren't out as much.
