What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed as I zipped onto the main path was the mix of city sounds and birdsong—somehow, both at once. The e-scooter felt smooth under my feet, even over those old cobblestones near Bethesda Terrace. We passed a group of joggers by the reservoir, their laughter echoing off the water. Our guide, Mike, pointed out Strawberry Fields—there was a street musician playing “Imagine” right there, which honestly gave me goosebumps.

We stopped for a quick breather near Sheep Meadow. You could smell hot pretzels from a nearby cart—couldn’t resist grabbing one. The map they gave us made it easy to find little corners I’d never seen before, like the Shakespeare Garden tucked behind some blooming lilacs. It’s wild how much you can cover on an e-scooter without feeling rushed or tired. Even saw a couple of folks walking their dogs in tiny rain jackets (it had just drizzled earlier). If you’re worried about getting around, don’t be—the paths are wide and mostly flat, and there’s plenty of space for everyone.
