How to BOLT:

SAFETY FIRST

Helmets are required. We also strongly recommend making sure your brakes work by engaging them before starting your ride.

START YOUR RIDE

Step on the scooter and push-off with one foot then use the throttle. To stop, release throttle and squeeze the brakes.

ENDING YOUR RIDE

Please be courteous to others and make sure the kickstand is down. Don’t block public pathways. Park by bike racks when available.
