E-stations

We’ve installed ebike-only e-stations throughout the city to improve availability and keep our city clean. Use the locking cable on the ebike to secure it at an e-station. Please only lock ebikes here — not Classic bikes or personal bikes.

How to park

You can either dock or lock your ebike (not both at once). Dock at any Nice Ride station or use the cable to lock at any e-station for free. For an extra $1, you can also lock to any public bike rack within the service area (it’s free at University of Minnesota bike racks).
Please don’t lock the bike to itself or any other structures, including trees or signposts. And be sure not to block pathways, sidewalks, or ramps.

Ending your ride

Parking is free at Nice Ride stations, e-stations, and University of Minnesota bike racks. You’ll be charged $1 for parking at a public bike rack in the service area. Parking out of the service area incurs a $25 fee, and parking violations (locking it to itself or anything except stations, e-stations, or public bike racks) may incur an additional $20 fee.

Happy (and safe) riding!

We always recommend that you wear a helmet, brake gradually with both hands, and be cautious in traffic when riding Nice Ride.
