Safety Measures - COVID-19

During Covid-19, we’ve enhanced our sanitization and safety protocols and created a designated COVID-19 Operations task force to monitor new guidelines and establish new procedures based on updated guidance.

We make sure that our team wash their hands and wears the appropriate PPE when handling e-scooters. All scooters are sprayed with disinfectant every day. The transport vehicle is sanitised daily and each e-scooter leaving the warehouse is sprayed before it is being deployed.

A FEW MEASURES RIDERS CAN TAKE:

Essential Rides: Be sure to follow local government and public health orders when riding.

Wear a cloth mask whenever you go out in public and ride Spin.

Ride Solo: For safety purposes and for social distancing recommendations, maintain six feet of distance between yourself and others.

Wash Your Hands Before and After Riding: Gloves can also be worn as an additional preventative measure.
