In the course of the last month a few different electric scooters have descended on downtown San Diego, this being one of them.

I dunno, they're all over the place and people seem to love them. For getting around a city center they're more convenient to rent simply because most of your destinations won't have a good solution for storage. You can pull up right to where you want to go and when you're ready to leave can usually find another one within a block or two.

I was surprised to see them here in SD. Westwood over by UCLA they are everywhere, and by everywhere I mean being ridden. Didn't think it'd be such a success outside of the college areas but it appears to really be picking up.
