SF is not tolerating the little sidewalk scooters very well, and rightly so. They are all over the place, and people are literally leaving them in doorways of busy places. I was glad to see a group of SF city workers scooping up the ones that were obviously blocking sidewalk traffic and throwing them in a truck that was half full of them.
On the other hand, the company Scoot, which rents scooters (like an electric Vespa) and regulates the users seems to be doing much better. They worked with the city to do a launch making agreements on where they can park etc... If you sign up with Scoot, it is kind of like Zip car and they are pretty clear if you are seen to be a menace, seen without a helmet or breaking other rules, your membership is revoked.

Hey Richard. Was cool meeting you guys. You did not miss anything by not sticking around. Mostly (I forgot his name) complaining to the guy who came about not being able to do all the customization he wanted to do, lack of control on settings such as battery as well as lack of information at the system level.
Not a judgement. He had things he wanted to say and was taking full advantage of being asked what he thought. I guess I am still in the Honeymoon period with my bike still being new. I got the bike with the assumption that electric bikes are still bleeding edge technology and there is not a big enough market to have flushed out the bugs. Since I took a leap of faith and almost expect a little of a bumpy ride, I am pleasantly surprised so far. But then again, I am not as far forward on that bleeding edge as a lot of you guys. I am benefiting from the pain you guys went through (to which I owe a lot of you thanks).
I still had a lot of input for him and had written it up luckily because he was quite tied up with our frustrated friend.

About the firmware updates via the app. I believe the guy was making the assumption that people could find updates because they (we, whoever) were behind on firmware updates. Does not appear to be the case for some of the folks checking the app. I know I did not find any, but I would not have really expected to since my bike is new.
