In the year since scooter startup Lime launched, people have taken 6 million rides on its trademark dockless scooters and bikes, according to the company. For comparison, it took competitor Bird a full year and a half to reach 1 million rides.

By the end of 2017, the number of US bikes from bike-share companies more than doubled to about 100,000, according to the National Association of Transportation Officials. Forty-four percent of these bikes, it said, were dockless, meaning they could be parked on the edge of a sidewalk or on a local bike rack and get unlocked with a smartphone app.
