Get ready for the World Cup, because five North American cities are about to get a whole lot more zippy. Lime, the micro-mobility giant, is dropping an extra 14,000 e-bikes and e-scooters into Atlanta, Dallas, Los Angeles, and the Mexican cities of Monterrey and Guadalupe. Because nothing says 'global sporting event' like dodging traffic on two wheels.
Your Ride to the Roar
This isn't just a random act of two-wheeled kindness. It's a strategic deployment to help fans navigate the inevitable gridlock that descends when the world's biggest soccer tournament rolls into town. Lime's even rolling out a special pass, offering up to 90 minutes of ride time for a flat fee (maxing out at $15, depending on your city). Which, if you think about it, is a pretty decent deal for avoiding a parking nightmare or a very sweaty walk.
Want to actually get to a stadium? Lime's got you in Atlanta, Seattle, Vancouver, and Monterrey. Prefer to shout at a big screen with fellow fans? They'll be available for local watch parties in Dallas, Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, and San Jose. Because apparently, the only thing better than watching soccer is watching it after a breezy e-scooter ride.

Start Your News DetoxNow, a word to the wise: some service areas might shift in June and July, especially in Dallas, Seattle, San Francisco, and San Jose. And Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, and San Jose might have some new parking rules to keep things from devolving into an electric scooter graveyard. In Atlanta, Lime staff will literally be on the ground, helping with parking and vehicle setup on match days. Because even micro-mobility needs a little adult supervision sometimes.
Lime says they've learned a thing or two from the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics and the 2026 Milan Winter Olympics. So, this isn't their first rodeo. Meanwhile, in New York City, Citi Bike is stepping up their valet game at Penn Station for those heading to matches in New Jersey or various viewing events. Because when the World Cup comes to town, apparently everyone gets a little extra pep in their step – or their two wheels.
