Operation
New to operating a scooter or moped?
Don’t worry. We will give you instructions and tips on riding our scooters, and our convenient
launch location offers you a low traffic spot for a test scoot before hitting the road.
If you have any questions or concerns, we’re there to help. If you are uncomfortable with operating a scooter or appear unsure, we will likely not rent to you.
Our scooters are easy to operate.
There are no gear changes and they are equipped with easy to use hand controls for the
throttle and braking.
You will be provided with a helmet and scooter lock.

Though it’s not a law, always wear your safety helmet while operating your scooter. If you do not have your own, we will provide you with one at no additional cost.
Pickup & Delivery
Pickup and delivery is available at an additional cost of $25.00 + $2.50 per mile (one way each trip). Delivery out of the Fort Myers, Cape Coral area will require a weekly rental.
