Look what I spotted! 😍

(Retired but not forgotten NiceRide)

@minneapolismn.gov needs to bring back docked bikeshare.

Tell Frey's CEO buddies to bring back niceride and a non crappy open streets

Minneapolis is making continued progress on our network of protected bikeways.

We need to bring back city bikeshare (RIP Niceride) & invest in programs like @mplscargobikelibrary.com !
Electric bicycles, and shared electric bicycles in particular, are a revolutionary transportation technology. Forward-looking cities should be building out the infrastructure necessary to make cycling safe and convenient for everyone who wants to do it.
i recently got a great deal on a barely used folding ebike and i have to say it has revolutionized my train travel. i can get from my front door to the amtrak station in a little less than 5 minutes!!!

As gas prices rise, a friendly reminder that Jacob Frey let niceride die.

I want an inexpensive bike share where I can use my @metrotransitmn.bsky.social card to pay where you can often find bikes docked at LRT and BRT stations. We could call it NiceRide 🚲 #bikeshare

Hey Twin Cities!

The Met Council is excited to announce that NiceRide, the bike sharing service once serving Minneapolis is officially back!

Meet NiceRide+, the new way to get around, serving the entire Twin Cities. Learn more about NiceRide+ in the link in our bio or read the thread below

Minneapolis NiceRide being scrapped was a public policy failure.
Often the smartest transport investments aren’t the most expensive ones. Villo!, Brussels’ public (e-)bike system, has one of the lowest barriers to entry: €1.50 per day or €3.50 per month for unlimited half-hour rides (€4 per month for e-bikes). At first glance, that might seem unsustainably low. 🧵

Thank Mayor Frey for allowing the contract with #BCBS to lapse & not finding another sponsor for #NiceRide. Another thing he has done to fail #Minneapolis. He can get his cronies security/violence intteruption contracts worth thousands but can't negotiate city bikes. #DontRankFrey
I strongly preferred the Nice Ride bikes we had in Minneapolis where you had to dock them at specific docking stations. Having the bikes littered all over sidewalks and bike paths is really irritating, and trying to _find_ a bike when you need one is less than ideal.

Note that Niceride never used to randomly shut off like the dockless rental bike and scooters do.
Only safe way to participate in a scooter takeover is on your very own privately owned bicycle that can't be shut down at random by the eye in the sky.

Approximately 1,100 days since NiceRide ended operations. Looks in working order.

, things the community needs. A project where MetroTransit owns NiceRide and integrates it into the transit system. There's so many better ideas than a hyperloop. A hyperloop. God.

If the city is serious about multimodal transportation: bring back NiceRide! People are anxious about going somewhere like a concert and locking their bike? NiceRide bikes would allow them to still bike but not worry about it!

Lime/Spin just don't cut it.

1.) Accessible & Secure Bike Parking including for cargo bikes
2.) Divided Bike Lanes & Sidewalks (Bryant Ave)
3.) Enforcement of parking/driving laws (like no parking or driving in bike lanes, INCLUDING COPS!)
4.) More free bikes & trikes, e-bikes & e-trikes to borrow (like MN NiceRide

There's a new way to get around. Welcome back, NiceRide!

When NiceRide+ launches, NiceRide+ bikes will be allowed on board light rail trains and on bike racks located on the front of buses to help take you to the last-mile.

We have the Spin and Lime bikes, but NiceRide is no more.

- then I took a Niceride up to the third precinct where there were people everywhere
- oh shit when they burned down to precinct?
- no I was only there for the autozone
- holy shit that sucks
- yeah I miss Niceride. Anyway our daycare watch group is grilling up at the park if you want to come by

when we oust jacob, we need to get the new mayor to bring back NiceRide; the best city for bicycling should not be without a public bikeshare program.

To hell with winter tires … I’m going to ask if this beauty is for sale.

I will NEVER understand why E-Trikes aren't part of the EBike rental fleet in a city. Maybe if our moron Mayor hadn't let NiceRide fold we could have made sure they were.
October 9, 2025 at 11:53 PM
Yeah, we first came in 2017? Rode all over with NiceRide and it was awesome! Friends went down for the Green Day concert last summer and said renting was prohibitively expensive where they checked so they didn't ride. BYOB!

I've used the Lime Bikes a couple of times and they're way more stable than the platform scooters. I really miss NiceRide here in Minneapolis and St Paul, MN, USA.
Le nouveau vélo Lime en action. Finalement en le voyant avec quelqu’un dessus je vois que le cadre n’est pas assez long pour avoir une version biplace - par contre les roues sont devenues petites sans doute pour être compatibles avec les biplaces annoncés à Paris.
