Link scooters just started showing up in Seattle and I decided to take one a couple miles to meet up with a friend for dinner. It would have been faster to walk there.
After bout 6 or 7 minutes of riding and only making it half a mile (and one harrowing experience with a yellow light), I stopped at a Jump bike. I opened the Uber app to book it and couldn't figure out how so I opened the Jump app. I wasn't signed in and my Uber password wasn't stored in my password manager so I had to reset my password. After doing that I finally made it into the Jump app only to have a single button that says "Launch Uber" and I was back to where I started. Of course I now had to sign in to the Uber app again since I just reset my password.
I still couldn't figure out how to book the thing so I just called a Lyft and finally made it to the restaurant. (I did finally figure out how to book it once I was in the car. I think my problem was that maybe the bike I was standing near wasn't showing up on the map.)
It was a bit of a comedy of errors last night but all my other experiences with electric scooters have been pretty inconvenient.
