Cruise with ease around some of Houston’s most iconic central neighborhoods—Downtown, Midtown, Buffalo Bayou and more—along with your friends for an afternoon or evening on an e-scooter from ERYD Scooter Rental Houston in EaDo.
Since bringing the electric scooter craze to Downtown Houston in Fall 2020, ERYD Scooter Rental has expanded, now offering seven locations throughout Downtown and EaDo where you can make quick and easy rentals to explore Downtown and its surrounding neighborhoods in a fast and fun way.
With a home base one block from the popular St. Emmanuel Street in EaDo, and six other locations in Downtown Houston—including Post Houston—ERYD Scooter Rental offers a variety of mobile options, called RYDS, that enable drivers to quickly get into Downtown streets and parks, plus further flung locales in Midtown, East End and Buffalo Bayou as part of a multi-hour exploration.
While roads often get busy around Downtown, scooter drivers can take advantage of bike lanes, wide lanes and more. But drivers should also observe traffic rules—including not riding on sidewalks—just as if they were riding a bicycle or other motorized single-person vehicle. Drivers should always be mindful of cars, trucks, motorcycles and other large motorized vehicles on Houston’s streets.
Drivers should also note that scooters are not permitted inside Discovery Green or on sidewalks.
