> I have spent a lot of time observing this phenomenon in Venice

For half a second I had this vision of Lime jet-skis piling up and blocking the canals of Venice, Italy.

Oh that's not what he meant? I was a bit surprised that the company had expanded to Italy. Is it Venice LA then, or somewhere else?

Yes, it's Venice, Los Angeles. When he says "SM-Venice", he means Santa Monica / Venice.

Incidentally, I was in Venice Beach a few weeks ago, and I too witnessed that the scooters are very popular down there, and becoming enough of a fixture that you hear things shouted on the street like "hey, that's my Lime" when someone breaches etiquette and takes a scooter that someone else has just parked and intends to use again right away.
